Well, I included some -moremata- functions in -texdoc.ado- so that it
can be used without having -moremata- installed on the system.
Apparently I forgot to copy one of the required functions
(mm_strexpand()) from -moremata- to -texdoc.ado-. I'll send an update
to Kit. Meanwhile, -texdoc- works if you install -moremata-. Type
. ssc install moremata
. mata mata mlib index
