Hi Alison,
there are some errors with the syntax:
1. Comments are done via the "#" symbol
2. In Hansl (Gretl's scripting language) lines do not end by ";" symbol
Here is your script which runs fine here [...]
One more comment. The statement
list variables = deflist("ROE", "ENV", "SOC",
"GOV")
is not quite right: the quotes are not wanted in this context. The
following works
list variables = deflist(ROE, ENV, SOC, GOV)
but (as in Artur's version) the simpler formulation
list variables = ROE ENV SOC GOV
is more idiomatic in hansl.
