[Gretl-users] new things, and translations

[Allin Cottrell]

A couple of things to note in current CVS and the current 
Windows snapshot.

1) I have "rationalized" the syntax for the "restrict" command: 
all coefficient arrays are now accessed using a 1-based index 
(not 0-based).

2) I've added support for reading PcGive databases in the form 
of in7/bn7 files.  This is under the Databases item in the File 
menu.  I haven't seen a public specification of in7/bn7 format 
so I've stuck to what I've been able to infer from examples. 
That means that at present only annual, quarterly and monthly 
data are supported.  If anyone knows how, e.g. daily data are 
handled in these files, please let me know.

Translators:  The IRO robot seems to be "on holiday" -- at 
least, I've had no response to my last submission of a gretl.pot 
file.  The current .pot (last updated 2006/08/03) is available 
at

http://ricardo.ecn.wfu.edu/pub/gretl/gretl.pot

I'm happy to accept .po updates via CVS or via email.
