  aim2rise -- converts a basic dynare file into a RISE one
 
  ::
 
    duplicates=aim2rise(aimFileName)
    duplicates=aim2rise(aimFileName,riseFileName)
    duplicates=aim2rise(aimFileName,riseFileName,stderr_name)
 
  Args:
 
     - **aimFileName** [char] : name of the dynare model file with or
       without extension (.aim)
 
     - **riseFileName** [char\|{'aimFileName.rs'}] : name of the created
       RISE file 
 
     - **stderr_name** [char\|{'std'}] : prepended name for the newly
       created parameters (RISE transforms all the variances and standard
       deviations into parameters)
 
 
  Returns:
     :
 
     - **duplicates** [struct] : structure containing information on the
       redundancies
 
  NB: the created files are 
 
     - riseFileName.rs 
 
     - riseFileName_params.m : parameter function file with calibration and
       priors as separate outputs
 
     - riseFileName_sstate.m (optional): steady state function file
