The main weakness of that FAQ is that it uses -outreg- as an example 
of a table creation command.  outreg2 and estout are generally 
better, in part because they are actively maintained.  I've recently 
started using outreg2 and really like it.  It is pretty good if you 
mostly just want coefficients and standard errors in your tables 
(which seems to be what I want most of the time).  estout gives you 
quite a few options for more complicated tables.
