While we are on this, does anyone know why the commands aren't
displayed?

Subject: st: display commands generated within foreach-loop

Dear all,

I'm sure my problem has a real simple solution, but I am unable to find 
it - how can I actually *see* the commands generated by a foreach-loop.

Let's say I have the following:

preserve
sysuse auto, clear
foreach x in "mpg" "price" {
	ttest `x', by(foreign)
}
restore


In this case, I would like to see

ttest mpg, by(foreign)

... output ...

ttest price, by(foreign)

... output ...

in my logfile, but I don't. All I see is the output of the T-test.

Any suggestions highly appreciated!

Regards
Thorsten
