You will probably only have to modify these lines:

npanel = 20;

load data[38,21] = gdp.txt;

let name =
    Year  Australia  Austria  Belgium  Canada  Denmark  Finland  France
    Germany  Greece  Iceland  Ireland  Italy  Japan  Netherlands  Norway
    Spain  Sweden  Switzerland  UK  USA;

For example, if you had a text file named mydata.txt with 94 observations, where the first column was the year and then you had 3 more columns of data one for Australia, one for Denmark and one for Iceland, you would change the code to look like this:

npanel = 3;

load data[94,4] = mydata.txt;

let name = Year Australia Denmark Iceland;

The rest of the file should stay the same.

The example probably failed because the sample data file did not have enough observations for this program. If you download this data file, example_data.txt and change the lines:

npanel = 20;

load data[38,21] = gdp.txt;

to:

npanel = 3;

load data[38,4] = example_data.txt;

the program should run successfully. I tested it on my machine with no problems.
