Re: st: increase digits after decimal point in p value

Thanks Austin,
For the table I showed, I get:
scalars:
r(N) = 861
r(r) = 2
r(c) = 2
r(p_exact) = 4.79750510923e-07
r(p1_exact) = 2.92991198169e-07
I'm interested in the two sided p so I did:
ret li p_exact
scalar r(p_exact) = 4.79750510923e-07
Unfortunately what I'm actually doing is around 3500 tables and I'd really like to scan the output and see:
Fisher's exact = 0.00000
so I can quickly pick out tables with p < .00001. I really do want to change the display format!
