Nick, Thanks a lot. This looks like a great improvement as far as I can tell from my test right now... Marc -----Ursprüngliche Nachricht----- Von: owner-statalist@hsphsun2.harvard.edu [mailto:owner-statalist@hsphsun2.harvard.edu] Im Auftrag von Nick Cox Gesendet: Dienstag, 8. Juni 2010 16:46 An: statalist@hsphsun2.harvard.edu Betreff: st: -catplot- revised on SSC As signalled earlier today, and thanks to Kit Baum, -catplot- has been revised on SSC. . ssc desc catplot gives an executive summary. Please use -ssc- or -adouPdate- to install if interested. I revised the syntax and much extended the help file. Stata 8 is required (still). If you used -catplot- previously, then please note that the new -catplot- breaks old habits and any .do or .ado files. I didn't do that lightly, and did consider other possibilities, e.g. trying to be smart enough to recognise both syntaxes, but then that's a pain too; or changing the name, but I like the name -catplot-, so there; or some version control fudge, but that's not attractive either. If you used -catplot- previously, you have choices: 1. You need not download the new files. But you're missing out on learning what -catplot- can do. 2. You could just download the new files, but carefully rename them with a name of your choice. But it's your program now! 3. You could just learn the new syntax. I think it's better, but then I would, wouldn't I? 4. You could learn to program Stata; that way you need not be bitten by user-programmer caprices.
