Stata Bin Package

Still being edited heavily and far from a finished project

Overview

This is a collection of small tools that I’ve written over time that are just generally useful

Installation

To install this package, use the package https://github.com/haghish/github.

github install robsfletch/StataBin

Use

clc

Very straightforward command to clear the window.

clc

dr

Just like ds except that you can specify regular expressions. For example, if you want to list all variables that end in e,

sysuse auto
dr .*e$

findbase

When working in a project folder, this command gives you the relative path back to the main project folder. You can then use that to call code using its path relative to the base folder.

findbase “SampleProject”
local base = r(base)
include `base'/Code/Stata/file_header.do

Uninstallation

github uninstall StataBin
