Thanks to Kit Baum a new version of -postrcspline- is
now available from SSC. To install type:
-ssc install postrcspline- and to update type either
-adoupdate, update- or -ssc install postrcspline, replace-.
-postrcspline- provides post-estimation commands for models
that use restricted cubic splines as predictors. Restricted
cubic splines are a way of allowing a variable to have a
non-linear but smooth effect on the outcome variable. The
two main post-estimation commands in the -postrcspline-
package are -adjustrcspline- and -mfxrcspline-. With
-adjustrcspline- one can draw a graph of the predicted
outcome adjusted for other explanatory variables. With
-mfxrcspline one can draw a graph of the effect of the
spline variable on the outcome variable. The previous
version only worked with -regress-, while this new version
will work by default with -regress-, -logit-, -logistic-,
-probit-, -poisson-, -cloglog-, and -glm-, and gives users
some tools to make it work with more programs.

Ps. I will give a presentation on this package at the
German Stata Users' Group meeting on Friday, June 26 in
Bonn.
