Hi all, 

in a recent thread (https://gretlml.univpm.it/hyperkitty/list/gretl-users@gretlml.univpm.it/thread/MNFMORUQMP5M6TIHPHO5KFTDWNE3AWWO/) Roland Clarke mentioned his necessity to retrieve variables from the FRED website.

So I wrote a function package for doing this easily, and it's now available. It's called "FRED_get". Comments and suggestions are very welcome.
