There is not a way to make such changes permanent without using
-profile.do-. Note however that profile.do does not need to reside
in the ado directory. You could create a profile.do for each
machine that set the appropriate PLUS directory for that machine.
Place that profile.do in the directory where Stata is installed.
Very good to know. Just tried it, and it works. Anything in profile.do
might be machine and user specific, so keeping it separate from the rest of
C:\ado makes sense if you want to copy C:\ado to different machines. Thanks!
