It seems to me that you should be able to do this (get impulse responses) 'by 
hand':
1) generate k-step ahead forecasts of your model with no shocks (ie, the 
unconditional mean) -> yf1
2) generate the same forecasts assuming a shock to a certain variable of a 
certain size -> yf2
3) IRF = yf2 - yf1

I haven't tried this myself in gretl (though I've done it in Excel), but it 
should be straightforward, no?

PS

I also was wondering this point.
I will use other software.

Thanks in advance,
Ricardo.
