st: -denton- updated

[Kit Baum <baum@bc.edu>]

<  >

The -denton- routine, which applies the proportional Denton method to  
interpolate a flow series to a lower time-series frequency, has been  
updated. -denton- interpolates annual data to quarterly using a  
quarterly indicator series. -dentonmq- interpolates quarterly data to  
monthly using an monthly indicator series. The programs have been  
updated to allow their execution on a single time series within a  
panel as defined by -tsset- or -xtset-.

These routines are currently limited by your current -matsize-. I  
will rewrite them to make use of Mata, which will remove this  
constraint.

The updated versions are available from -ssc inst denton, replace- or  
-adoupdate-.
