I do it the other way round. -which- tells me what is an official command or
whether I have a copy in some directory or folder for user-written programs.
-findit- then looks for other stuff.

Thanks, Nick.  Usually when I try to check whether a package I'm using is
something I downloaded from SSC or not, I (lazily) just type -ssc d foo- or
-ssc install foo- and as long as it doesn't give me the error:

ssc install: "foo" not found at SSC, type -findit foo-
(To find all packages at SSC that start with t, type -ssc describe t-)
r(601); 

I assume it's from the SSC.  
I didn't get this error when I checked -stack- (apparently, because there is
a page for it (http://ideas.repec.org/c/boc/bocode/s320501.html)), but I
need to look closer in the future.
