st: Re: smultron text editor

[Kit Baum <baum@bc.edu>]

That Smultron preference is meant to point to an executable program,  
not to a directory. /bin/sh is a program (one flavor of the Unix  
shell). /applications/stata/stata-se is, likewise, a Unix program  
(the console version of Stata/SE 9). I believe you need the <  
redirection on the line as well to get Smultron to feed what you have  
highlighted into Stata.
