Hi Diego, This can certainly be done in gretl, but you'll have to program it yourself. There's no built-in Markov Switching functionality at the moment, and as far as I know nobody's made a function package available for it.
As I recall, some of the Gauss code for Kim & Nelson's book deals with a 3-state model. I've found gretl's scripting language (hansl) similar enough to Gauss (or Matlab) that it's pretty straightforward to port one to the other. I hope this helps!
