st: simulate and unexpected termination

["Guillaume Frechette" <gurst1@hotmail.com>]

Dear statalisters: I am new to the use of the simulate command and have a 
few questions. Since my simulation my last quite a while I am worried about 
things such as someone turning off the computer. I see that saving(filename) 
replace every(#) offers some protection but am I correct in understanding 
that it doesn't save the iteration it was on when the termination happened 
and that it doesn't allow you to restart from that point?

Thanks in advance,

g
