tabs for new data sets

2012-12-14T14:53:40Z

gretl doesn't allow different datasets in same window unless you clear the current one or run multiple main windows. secondary window tabs for new data sets would be great. (like the tabs of internet browsers or something else like in excel...).

Multiresolution Analysis

2012-09-16T17:41:10Z

Discrete wavelet transform and wavelet filtering would be useful for time-varying and non-stationary analysis

Gibbs Sampling

2012-08-25T13:59:45Z

a gibbs sampler would be very useful for alternative analysis.

Test for other distributions

2012-02-18T18:02:02Z

I'd relly like see the tests for poisson, weeibull, binomial distributions etc. besides the normality test. it would be a geat feature

generation of missing values

2012-02-03T21:01:00Z

If you restrict the set of your data and apply a transformation like the log-transform, then the transformed variable for data which do not fulfill the restricting condition are set to missing. I think that this feature is odd and does not make much sense. I easily can become a problem for the user. Knowing about this mode of Gretl, one can create the transformed variables before restricting the sample. Or, not to forget to repeat the transformation process in the full sample \(in case one would like to work with transformed variable\(s\) in the full sample\). Why not applying the transformation on the whole data set???

PMML support for gretl?

2011-10-26T21:57:21Z

Is there any interest for supporting PMML \(Predictive Modeling Markup Language\) to allow models to be exported from gretl? Alternatively, importing data and variable information from PMML? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Predictive\_Model\_Markup\_Language

optional use of asymptotic approximations

2011-07-09T15:00:29Z

It would be nice that there was an option to choose asymptotic aproximations in testing output \(t-ratio, test for joint significance, Wald test of linear restriction, etc.\) instead of the exact statistics and distributions used to compute p-values under the normality assumption. One might want to use OLS without assuming normality in the same maner that one is not always willing to asume homoscedasticity or lack of serial correlation. It would be the user choice to prefer believing in normality of errors or in asymptotic approximations in finite samples

Make a seamless integration with latex

2011-06-29T10:52:14Z

Probably you know about sweave: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sweave It would be fantastic to have a GretlWeave for Gretl 2.0\!

Automatically refresh command log

2011-06-29T10:41:04Z

It would be good if the command log would automatically refresh after every executed command.

dashed and dotted lines in time series plots

2011-06-17T05:22:23Z

I really like the Gretl time series plot, However, I would like to have the posibility of having dashed and dotted lines. When e.g. printing out a graph in black and white it is difficult to see the difference between colours. Hope this will be added in a later release\!
