st: Indicate fixed-effects from -xtreg, fe- in -esttab- or -estout-

[Bert Jung <bjung59@gmail.com>]

Dear Statalisters,

I would like to output estimates from a -xtreg, fe- model with
-esttab- and want a row at the bottom of the table that indicates
"Yes" for the fixed-effects.  Since -xtreg- does not estimate these
coefficients, I cannot use the -estout- option -indicate( )- to do
this.

A silly example:

eststo: xtreg weight length turn , fe i(rep78)
esttab , cells(b) indicate("Turn var = turn")


Which generates the following:


-------------------------
                      (1)
                   weight
                        b
-------------------------
length           27.79437
_cons           -3262.035
Turn var              Yes
-------------------------
N                      69
-------------------------


I would like a row just like the "Turn var" that indicates that fixed
effects are present.  I don't need the name of the FE variable just
the indicator as such:

-------------------------
length           27.79437
_cons           -3262.035
Turn var              Yes
Fixed effects      Yes
-------------------------
N                      69
-------------------------

I am hoping that someone may have found the answer.  Thanks for any pointers.
