STATACMDS: Stata module to produce list of all commands known to Stata, including fuctions and built-ins

Daniel Bela

Statistical Software Components from Boston College Department of Economics

Abstract: statacmds searches Stata's help file directories for command and function names, and returns them in a local. The result may be used as a basis for implementing convenience features like syntax highlighting or autocompletion in external editors. It is heavily inspired by Jeff Pitblado's -getcmds-. statacmds requires the author's program -filesearch-, available from SSC, for recursively searching for files.

Language: Stata
Requires: Stata version 13 and filesearch from SSC (q.v.)
Keywords: command; function; getcmds; syntax highlighting (search for similar items in EconPapers)
