Re: st: RE: How to convert logs to HTML including TABLES

[Timothy P Cheney <tcheney@sas.upenn.edu>]

I think the problem will remain too large and diffuse for a generalized 
solution until stata changes its smcl and tabdisp.  This is one area where 
SAS with its ODS is out in front.

However for my purposes I think a brute force method of just chopping 
every line with a vertical pipe character into a table row would work in a 
high enough percentage of cases to save me the cut and pasting.  It's 
almost as much the indignity of it as the labor involved ;-)

Cheers,
Tim
