Taking a cue from -h maximize-, the technical way to do this would be:
*************
webuse union, clear
reg union age grade /*
*/ not_smsa south black
mat A=e(b)
clogit union age grade /*
*/ not_smsa south black, /*
*/ group(idcode) from(A, skip)
*************
I have no idea, though, whether this is appropriate for your circumstances.
The help file remarks that "Only in rare circumstances would you ever need
to specify any of these options..."
