Thanks Artur, but it's still not a clear step-by-step guide to
run
your program.
What does
|1) Clone the repo by means of ```git clone```|
mean?
Hi,
one can also simply download the whole project from here:
https://github.com/atecon/covid_19_forecast/archive/master.zip
This involves all files you see here:
https://github.com/atecon/covid_19_forecast
Alternatively one need to get familiar with the versioning tool "git" --
the net is full of introductions on how to use git.
Once git is installed, you can download the project via the "git clone"
command. A related example can be found here:
http://gretl.sourceforge.net/gretl-git-basics.html
Best,
Artur
Every step needs to be spelled out in detail command by command if
you
want people to use your code, as I would do if it were my project.
Don't assume familiarity! For instance, I simply saved the script as
run.inp in my -gretl- folder and then ran it. Nothing happened,
probably because I didn't first engage in this -git clone- business.
That's what I mean.
Cheers, Clive

Hi Clive,
Glad you like it. I've just added further information to the page.
Hopefully that helps. In principle you simply need to run the script
"./script/run.inp" after having set the parameter "DIR_WORK".
Best,
Artur
