Re: st: 64-bit Stata for Mac now available

[David Airey <david.airey@vanderbilt.edu>]

.

One thing I noticed that is missing in this version is that when I  
start up the application by double-clicking a file, the working  
directory is not automatically set the the directory of that file.  
Then I have to set it manually. Can you add this functionality back in?
