Title
[R] doedit -- Edit do-files and other text files
Syntax
doedit [filename]
Menu
Window > Do-file Editor
Description
doedit opens a text editor that lets you edit do-files and other text
files.
The Do-file Editor lets you submit several commands to Stata at once.
Remarks
Clicking on the Do-file Editor button is equivalent to typing doedit.
doedit, typed by itself, invokes the Editor with an empty document. If
you specify filename, that file is displayed in the Editor.
You may have more than one Do-file Editor open at once. Each time you
submit the doedit command, a new window will be opened.
A tutorial discussion of doedit can be found in the Getting Started with
Stata manual. Read [U] 16 Do-files for an explanation of do-files, and
then read [GSM] 13 Using the Do-file Editor---automating Stata, [GSU] 13
Using the Do-file Editor---automating Stata, or [GSW] 13 Using the
Do-file Editor---automating Stata to learn how to use the Do-file Editor
to create and execute do-files.
