st: -sumdist-, -svylorenz- updated on SSC
Thanks to Kit Baum, my programs for estimating quantile group shares
of a total, Lorenz ordinates (cumulative shares), and generalized
Lorenz ordinates have been updated on SSC.  
-sumdist- provides compact tabular summaries of these statistics. It
has been updated to version 8.2 (formerly version 5), and now produces
many saved results in r(...). 
-svylorenz- produces distribution-free variance estimates (as well as
point estimates) using linearization methods. Already on SSC, this
version 9 program has been extended to estimate generalized Lorenz
ordinates and their sampling variances.
Use -ssc install _program-name_- or -adoupdate _program-name_ , ssc
update- to get the latest versions from SSC
The programs were illustrated in my presentation at the recent UK
Stata User Group meeting; pdf file downloadable shortly from
