Quantile-quantile plot for data vs fitted Singh-Maddala distribution
--------------------------------------------------------------------

    ^qsm^ varname [^if^ exp] [^in^ range] [ ^,^ ^gr^id graph_options ]


Description
-----------

^qsm^ plots the quantiles of varname against the quantiles of a
three-parameter Singh-Maddala distribution. The parameters a, b and q
are taken from S_a, S_b and S_q, which is where ^smfit^ puts maximum
likelihood estimates of them.


Options
-------

^grid^ adds grid lines at the .05, .10, .25, .50, .75, .90, and .95
    quantiles.

graph_options are any of the options allowed with ^graph, twoway^; see
    help for ^graph^.
