Re: st: mi estimate with user written command

[Stas Kolenikov <skolenik@gmail.com>]

Have you looked at -help mi_technical##newcmd-, and the "[P] program
properties" section that is linked from there?

According to statalist FAQ, you should specify the source of the
third-party commands. As I expected, -findit traj- did not produce
anything, so nobody except the author of that software could help you.
If you've written -traj-, it is of course your responsibility to
figure out why it does not work in the expected way. If this is some
sort of trajectory modeling, it must be a driver for -xtmixed- or
-xtmelogit-, or something like that. May be if you can trace the
actual estimation command and supply it in the unwrapped syntax to -mi
estimate-, it could run that way.
