Matthias Schonlau has written a command for boosted regression that is
not Mac compatible. Does anyone know of a similar command that will
work with Mac (intel-based)?
If the plugin is written in vanilla C++, it should be straightforward
to compile it (using Xcode) on the Intel Mac if Matthias Schonlau is
willing to give you a copy of the code. It does not appear to be
accessible from his website. If he is not willing to make it publicly
available, he could agree to let one Mac user have access to it in
order to compile the plugin (which he could then distribute), but keep
source code private.
This is an illustration of why plugins are rather a pain -- the Stata
Journal version won't run on Linux, Unix or 64-bit Windows, either.
