There has been a flurry of emails on -examples-
today. More people than Alan may be interested in
an explanation of where it is, at this instant.
Thanks to Kit Baum, the version now on SSC
is -examples- 1.1.1 15 July 2004 and it
requires Stata 8.2. This is not so much
because the code depends on recent changes
to Stata, as because the examples of -examples-
refer to things that have only recently become
possible. Setting the version to 8.2 was my
signal to users: you need to -upgrade- your
Stata, and that is the answer to Alan. (Or,
get your local systems person to do it.)
When I announced -examples- this a.m. (GMT),
I flagged three things as on a list to think
about:
1. -examples- needs to be fixed so that it understands e.g.
. examples log()
2. Some people might want the examples to be shown in the Viewer
(perhaps through a -wexamples-, by analogy with -whelp-).
I'm agnostic about that, but interested in strong views.
3. -examples- needs to be smarter about echoing repeated
blank lines.
All are now done, as of this p.m. (GMT).
If you downloaded -examples- earlier today, please
reinstall:
. ssc inst examples, replace
