st: New package -fvprevar- on SSC

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

Thanks yet again to Kit Baum, a new package -fvprevar- is now available 
for download from SSC. In Stata, use the -ssc- command to do this.
The -fvprevar- package, described as below on my website, is a version 
of the Stata Version 11 command -fvrevar-, which generates permanent 
result variables (with names prefix by a user-specified -generate(stub)- 
option) instead of temporary result variables. It is expected to be 
useful, together with -bspline- and -prodvars-, in creating design 
matrices for models involving splines for continuous factors together 
with indicator (or dummy) variables for discrete factors.
Best wishes

Roger
