Abstract: copycode's primary purpose is to help copying different source code files into one output ado file. A typical application would be an ado file whose final version is supposed to contain subroutines and/or Mata routines that you are accustomed to use and re-use in several of your ado files. This facilitates code production, code maintenance and code certification. copycode accounts for your ado files' first-order and higher-order dependencies on other self/user-written ado files and lets you add 'private' comments to your code files. It produces output files that do not depend on any other self/user-written ado file ('modular' files), thereby facilitating code distribution.
