-tabplot- is from SSC. Please remember to explain the source of
user-written programs.
It doesn't offer that.
Consider as an alternative.
sysuse auto
ssc inst catplot
catplot foreign rep78, percent(foreign)
catplot foreign rep78, percent(rep78)
Horizontal bars often look better than vertical bars with text angled
at 45 degrees.
As the code above shows, -catplot- is also from SSC.

I'm using Stata12. Any pointers much appreciated.
