Abstract: tknz tokenizes string into tokens, storing the results in the local macros stub1, stub2, etc. Tokens are determined based on the parsing characters pchars, which defaults to a space if not specified. Occasionally this is useful when dealing simultaneously with two or more sets of tokenized local macros. This is an updated version of a program originally written by Nicholas J. Cox.

Language: Stata
