| Dear Maintainer,

Correct, maintainer here. Not author. There is a mailing list for gretl,
maybe you could you ask there?

I don't yet see a bug, only unsuccessful use of the software.  Have you tried
loading an example time series data set that came with gretl (assuming there
is one).

| As in the documentation, I am trying to import data to gretl from a csv file.
| The data is monthly, so it looks something like this:
| ,shillerRet,state,consSentiment,PMI
| 1987:02,0.0045773162,1,90.4,54.9
| 1987:03,0.004080661,1,90.2,52.6
| 1987:04,0.0045113495,1,90.8,55
| 1987:05,0.0050701111,1,92.8,55.5
| 1987:06,0.004516603,1,91.1,57.2
| (...)
| 
| but gretl fails to interpret is as timeseries data:
| parsing /home/ga1009/PhD/cpp/pmi/gretlInput.csv...
| using delimiter ','
|    longest line: 43 characters
|    number of columns = 5
|    number of variables: 4
|    number of non-blank lines: 297
| scanning for variable names...
|    line: ,shillerRet,state,consSentiment,PMI
| scanning for row labels and data...
|    the cell for variable 3, obs 294 is empty: treating as missing value
|    the cell for variable 3, obs 295 is empty: treating as missing value
|    the cell for variable 3, obs 296 is empty: treating as missing value
|    first row label "1987:02", last label "2011:09"
| trying to parse row labels as dates...
|    1987: probably a year... month 02?
|    1987:01: not a consistent date
|    but the dates are not complete and consistent
| treating these as undated data
