[Gretl-users] Re: gretl 2021a released

See http://gretl.sourceforge.net/ Here's the change log entry: 2021-01-18, version 2021a - New function vma() for multiple time series - quantile(): support variant methods Q7 and Q8 described in Hyndman and Fan (1996) - defbundle(): add two shorthand variants of this function - irf(): support calculation of multiple impulse responses in a single call (with internal speed-up) - irf() bug-fix: failing to compute bootstrap confidence band correctly when passed a $system bundle argument - VAR internals: scrap augmented Cholesky matrix; so the $system.C accessor is now a square matrix - $system bundle: ensure presence of xlist member, and include the command-word (var, vecm or system) - mread(): support reading gdt and gdtb files as matrices - readfile(): support reading gzipped files transparently - obslabel(): support a vector of observations - nls/mle/gmm blocks: support use of printf statements - "open" command: support reading selected series from native gretl datafiles (gdt, gdtb) - "join" command: support $obsmajor, $obsminor as outer keys - "coint2" command: rename as "johansen" - "freq" and "xtab" for string-valued series: don't let non-ASCII characters break the formatting - Gretl User's Guide: add links to download example scripts - Reorganize the categories for the functions help file - Fix obscure problem with plots: inability to show markers for observations in some cases where this should be OK - Fix memory leak on deleting a series with descriptive label attached - Fix excessive messaging on renaming series in a loop, a serious issue if the dataset contains very many series - Fix breakage in handling of boolean comparisons involving missing values - Fix bug: potential crash on "Save as icon and close" for a model displayed in tabbed model viewer - Fix bug: possible crash on confusion between singleton array and array element within a loop - Fix bug: crash after setting "specific lags" for a VAR in the GUI model selection dialog - Fix bug: possible crash on frequency plot for series with long string values - Fix: text encoding for RTF printing of model output broken in some cases under translation - Fix: memory leaks associated with GUI window lists - Fix: buggy completion proposals in script editor when using gtksourceview-2.0 - Fix Windows-specific bug: gretlcli and gretlmpi could fail on parsing command-line arguments -- Allin Cottrell Department of Economics Wake Forest University _______________________________________________ Gretl-users mailing list -- gretl-users(a)gretlml.univpm.it To unsubscribe send an email to gretl-users-leave(a)gretlml.univpm.it Website: https://gretlml.univpm.it/postorius/lists/gretl-users.gretlml.univpm.it/
