Maarten--
This is wonderful and I appreciate the alacrity with which you have
responded to me...
But I do wonder a bit about the on-line help for mata, since this would
seem to be a "natural" for the "Also see" section in, e.g.,
-help mf_st_matrix-
and while I now see that it follows immediately in the hard-copy MATA
manual -- apologies, I am in my office, and I should have looked there
first -- often we do not have the hardbound handy...
Best,
