Hi
I am having difficulty with the user-written command aflogit.
Although it is expected to work after unconditional logit or poisson 
it does not work for me.
As to why it stopped working in Stata 11 -- aflogit.ado includes the code
        #delimit ;
        if "$S_E_cmd" != "logistic" & "$S_E_cmd" != "logit" & 
"$S_E_cmd" != "blogit"
         & ("$S_E_cmd" != "glm" | "$S_E_fam" != "bin" | "$S_E_link" != "l")
         & ("$S_E_cmd" != "glm" | "$S_E_fam" != "poi")
         & "$S_E_cmd" != "poisson" {;
                disp in red "Can only be used after unconditional 
logistic or poisson regression";
                error 301;
        };
For whatever reason, it appears that Stata's -logit- stopped setting 
those macros starting with version 11. If somebody were so inclined, 
they could probably rewrite aflogit using e(cmd) instead.
aflogit was written for version 5 of Stata, so presumably you could 
get it to work with any supported command by doing something like
version 5: command...
aflogit
