Hi Ariel

I think the {sub} tag is only supposed to work in graph text. I don't see any way it can be implemented in SMCL as used in .sthlp files. In my .sthlp files, I always express subscripts using underscores. The online help for my -parmhet- command gives some examples of this.

I hope this helps.

Best wishes

Roger

Hi All,

In writing a help file, I would like to use a subscript, however it doesn't
seem to work as intended. Y{sub:t} shows up just like that, as opposed to Y
followed up with subscript t.

Thanks!

Ariel
