NAME

       gretl - GNU Regression, Econometrics and Time-series Library

SYNOPSIS

       gretl [ options ] [ datafile | scriptfile | sessionfile ]

DESCRIPTION

       gretl  is  an econometrics package, built around a shared library which
       may be accessed using a command-line client  program  (gretlcli)  or  a
       graphical  user  interface (gretl_x11).  The program gretl is a wrapper
       script that calls the GUI if the DISPLAY environment variable  is  set,
       otherwise the command-line client.

       For  details, please start up either the GUI or the command-line client
       and consult the online help, or  read  the  printed  manual,  which  is
       available     in     PDF     format     via    the    gretl    website,
       http://gretl.sourceforge.net.
