Thank you for your reply Allin. The question about the dependent
variable is now cleared.
Minor adjustments were made to the script to save the models seperately.
However the problem with $unit in the script still persists despite
the dataset structure set as panel. Please see the attached screenshot
and the script file.
Ah, this seems to be a bug that has been fixed since the gretl
1.9.3 release. Please try the current snapshot for Windows at

My question about the NLS procedure is more theoretical - imho the
manual doesn't provide enough theoretical background for the way the
Gauss-Newton regression is used
Try Davidson and MacKinnon, "Econometric Theory and Methods".
