st: How to deal with commands that are too long for e(cmdline) when writting postestimation commands?

Dear Statalisters,
I am working on an ado that calculates influence statistics
for higher-level clusters after hierarchical mixed models.
However, my question is pretty much independent of my ado.
My postestimation command needs to extract a list of all
independent variables of the model and also some other
elements from the command (options, random effects specifications etc.).
Everything works fine and I don't have a problem with the syntax.
My problem is simply that I don't know how to deal with command
lines that exceed 244 characters. How do you deal with command lines
that cannot be stored in e(cmdline)? Is there a way to get all the
variables, options, etc. even if the command exceeds 244 characters?
Thanks,
Alex
