A few experiments indicate that, at least in
some circumstances, -tabulate- in Stata chops at 39 characters.
So if your labels are cut in half, they must be about
78 characters long.
-table-, and -tabdisp- which it uses, appear to chop
at 40 characters.
A few experiments indicate that changing the setting
of -linesize- makes no difference.
Another even more homespun way is illustrated by this
example:
. u auto
. bysort foreign : egen freq = sum(1)
. egen tag = tag(foreign)
. list foreign freq if tag
