## Not run: 
# The first example creates an `EViews` workfile with monthly frequency from 1990 2021,
# then save the workfile in the current working directory

exec_commands(c("wfcreate(wf=exec_commands,page=eviewsPage) m 2000 2022"))

# The second example opens the `EViews` workfile and then generate a random series
# named `y` and plots its line graph. It also freezes `ols` equation as `EviewsROLS`
