st: Re: macro list

["Sergiy Radyakin" <Radyakin@aoek.uni-hannover.de>]

Hello Fred,

Notice that a column separates a macro name from the value. So here is how:
**************************************************
log using "c:\abcdef.txt", text replace
macro dir
log close
insheet using "C:\abcdef.txt", delimiter(":")
keep v1
drop if _n<6| _n>_N-5
**************************************************

Of course replace abcdef.txt with a temporary filename.
The last line excludes the log file header and footer.

Best regards,
Sergiy
