1) Support for X-12-Arima and Tramo/Seats de-seasonalization programs
Since version 1.0.1, gretl can support the external stand-alone
programs x12a [by the U.S. Census Bureau, see
http://www.census.gov/srd/www/x12a/
for documentation, source code and binaries] and tramo/seats [by
the Bank of Spain, see
http://www.bde.es/servicio/software/econome.htm].
Allin Cottrel provides rpm as well as alien(1)-generated deb
packages for both x12arima and tramo/seats. They are available from
the gretl web site at
http://gretl.sourceforge.net/
as well as from Allin's ftp site at
ftp://ricardo.ecn.wfu.edu:/pub/gretl
in the i386 binary form.
Moreover, a script x12arima.sh is installed by the gretl package in
the directory /usr/share/doc/gretl/examples/utils/tramo_x12/. It
can be used to dowmload, compile and install the x12arima program
directly from the source code available at the U.S. Census web site.
This should make it suitable for non-i386 platforms. At some
point, a standard Debian package may be created from these
sources. If you are interested in having such a package, drop me a
line.
Tramo/seats is not available in source form. A few polite email to
the authors may change that.
