Thanks to Kit Baum, a new Mata package -mf_insheet-
is available from SSC.
-mf_insheet- provides the Mata functions -insheet()-,
-infile()- and -outsheet()-.
* -insheet()- and -infile()- return the contents
of an ASCII spreadsheet file as a string matrix.
* -outsheet()- may be used to export a string
matrix into a spreadsheet file.
To install the package, type
. ssc install mf_insheet
To view the help file after install, type
. help mata insheet()
Peace,
ben
