[Gretl-users] Re: Defining a list of series before series are loaded, is it possible?

Hi all, I'm Yago again.
So I'm struggling with a new thing.
The script I'm writing asks the user to imput at the very top what
variables will be used as dependent and regressors for a logit model. I
wanted to put it at the top so any user imput is close and neat, and
there's no skim through code necessary.
The problem is that I can't make a list before I have a dataset, I can't
make a list for series that are not defined before such list.
Hi, I don't understand what the problem is. You can write anything like:
list reg = x y z
in a script even with no dataset loaded, and no series "x", "y",
"z"
present. Of course it won't _work_ before you load the data, but that's
expected and cannot be avoided.
So surely you're trying to achieve something different? Maybe a more
concrete code example would help us understand.
cheers
