This would be a nice feature. So far I am only aware of JMulti (Hall and
Efron percentiles ) and RATS which offer different procedures. I think
Eview has implemented only a standard MC-procedure.

Thank you!

Both the SVAR module and the C version use the simple bootstrap for computing the confidence intervals for IRFs, as per Runkle (1987) "Vector Autoregression and Reality", JBES.

I'll probably make the "bootstrap-after-bootstrap" method (Kilian 1998)
avalaible in the SVAR module soon, as an extra option.
