Bob:
It is not exactly what you are looking for and if your programs take long
to run than this is not very efficient but something like this may help:
*-----------begin example------------
program valid
capture `0'
if !_rc `0'
end
sysuse auto
set trace on
valid reg bla blub
valid reg price mpg foreign
*-----------end example-------------
