Well in some sense you give the answer yourself, this is something
different. In fact, I don't see what it is or how it is going to work
(in econometric theory I mean), but maybe I'm missing something.

Quoting from the command docs, look it up for more explanation:
"
restrict
R = Rmat
q = qvec
end restrict
"
Or maybe you could do it in a loop if you want to somehow test stuff in
different equations.
