Thanks to Kit Baum, there is now a new package -pcontract- available for
download on SSC. In Stata, type -ssc desc pcontract- to find out more.
-pcontract- is an extended version of -contract- which also generates
percentages and, optionally, cumulative frequencies and percentages. It is
described as below on my website.
Best wishes
