RE: st: texdoc

["Nick Cox" <n.j.cox@durham.ac.uk>]

My short answer is No. 

My longer answer is that it's difficult to imagine how that would be
done -- and (not least) who would do it. Does Word lend itself to this,
even in principle? 

One near approach would seem to be those programs with varying degrees
of support for HTML output. -findit html- finds several.

   Thanks for posting this to bring this to our (and my) attention. I 
always believe very strongly in using this kind of "weaving" approach 
and find it very efficient. Are you (or is anyone on the Statalist) 
aware of a tool similar to this that weaves comments, commands, output, 
and graphs into a Word document? At my work, we are in constant need of 
creating such integrated outputs and the standard format is a Word
document.

relatively simple documents one might produce for a course.
