Dear all,
I drafted two little programs -ldta- and -ldo- that provide a clickable
list of .dta files or .do files in the working directory.
Unfortunatelly, as they stand, the programs only work for Unix/Linux, as
I do not know how I can write a text-file with filenames into a file
under Windows (see program code below). I thought of
. log using x
. quietly dir *.dta
. log close
but obviously this doesn't help. I also thought of
sh dir *.dta > 11
but I cannot test it as I don't have access do Windows-machine with
Stata right now.
Any hints most appreciated.
Uli
