st: ssc whatshot

[Kit Baum <baum@bc.edu>]

The new -ssc whatshot- command, which displays information on the  
recent popularity of SSC Archive packages, has been updated in the 22  
Jan 2008 ado-file update. It did not work if -set varabbrev- was - 
off- (which it always is for me). Now it works fine in all  
circumstances.

If you haven't upgraded to Stata 10, this is one of the cool new  
things you are missing!
