Short answer: yes. Long answer: In contrast to some other open-source 
projects, gretl has excellent documentation; I'm almost certain the user 
guide has the detailed answers to your question.

Again, in some cases the documentation is fairly explicit, but 
ultimately Allin and Jack would probably say: use the source, Luke. 
(Nothing I ever do since I'm not literate in C, so I'm not trying to be 
arrogant here, it's just the fact of open source that unlike proprietary 
packages everything is accessible in principle.)

good luck,
