Thanks. While we're at it, we may want to slightly revisit the
behaviour of the TRAMO/SEATS backend for deseas(): if the automatic
analysis finds no seasonality, then the seasonally adjusted series is
simply not created and deseas() spits an error. Example:
<hansl>
open AWM18
catch series c = deseas(YER, T)
err = $error
printf "error %d: %s\n", err, errmsg(err)
</hansl>
gives
<output>
? catch series c = deseas(YER, T)
/home/jack/.gretl/tramo/graph/series/safin.t: No such file or directory
? err = $error
Generated scalar err = 11
? printf "error %d: %s\n", err, errmsg(err)
error 11: Error attempting to open file
</output>
I guess that in this case we could just fill the seasnoally-adjusted
series with the original values and issue a warning, but I'd rather
ask you guys for your opinion.
Hm, silently returning "no action" when action is wanted wouldn't seem
right.
