Dimitriy,

as you say -mat2txt- and -mat2csv- are user-written programms and you
are asked to explain where they come from. It seems  -mat2txt-
(Blasnik, Jann) is from the SSC archieves. However -findit mat2csv-
returns no results so I cannot say what it is and where it is from.

Regarding the syntax you showed, you will have to put matrix M where
Stata can find it as -mat2txt- will not be able to export a matrix
from Mata. You do this typing

mata : st_matrix("M", M)

followed by

mat2txt  [...]
