Re: st: calculating a loglikelihood in regress

Dear all,
Does anyone know if it's possible to calculate a loglikelihood value 
from regress? I tried to download and implement the command 
"reglike", but I was unsuccessful. Perhaps someone is aware of an 
up-to-date alternative, or can provide further instruction on how to 
use the reglike procedure. Any insights would be much appreciated.
e(ll) and e(ll_0) are stored by regress.  Long and Freese's -fitstat- 
command (part of their spost9.ado package) provides one of many ways 
for displaying this and other useful info.
