It seems that the --plot option for fcasterr got dropped when we
merged "fcasterr" with "fcast" in gretl 1.7.4. I'll see about
reinstating it, since it seems like a useful thing to have.
This is now back again, in CVS and the Windows snapshot:
http://sourceforge.net/projects/gretl/files/snapshots/gretl_install.exe/d...
The --plot option to fcast has the following effect:
* With no added parameter, writes a gnuplot command file on the
pattern gpttmp01.plt to the user's gretl working directory (with
the number incremented for successive plots).
* With a filename parameter, as in
fcast --plot=fc.eps
fcast --plot=fc.pdf
fcast --plot=fc.png
writes a graphic file in EPS, PDF or PNG format, depending on the
extension given. Absolute pathnames should be respected, as in
fcast --plot=/home/foo/myfc.pdf
otherwise files are written to the gretl working directory as
above.
