st: New version of -xrewide- on SSC

[Roger Newson <r.newson@imperial.ac.uk>]

Thanks once again to Kit Baum, a new version of the -xrewide- package is 
now available for download from SSC. In Stata, use the -ssc- command to 
do this, or -adoupdate- if you already have an old version of -xrewide-.

The -xrewide- package, described as below on my website, is an extended 
version of -reshape wide-. The new version adds the capability to expand 
stub lists containing wildcards.

Best wishes (and have a happy new year in 2011)

Roger

TITLE
      xrewide: Extended version of reshape wide

DESCRIPTION/AUTHOR(S)
      The xrewide package is an extended version of reshape wide.
      It saves results in variable characteristics, in addition to
      the dataset characteristics saved by reshape.  This is done
      using additional options for assigning the values and/or
      value labels of the j-variable to characteristics of the
      corresponding generated output variables.  These
      characteristics can be useful for defining column headings
      if the reshaped output dataset is output to a table using
      the listtab package, which can be downloaded from SSC.
