{title:Description}
{p 4 4 2}
{cmd:spex} allows users to easily use example files and models from
Long and Freese's {it: Regression Models for Categorical Dependent Variables}
{it: Using Stata}. Typing {cmd:spex} {it:filename} will load the specified
example dataset, while typing {cmd:spex} {it:modelname} will estimate that
model using data and an example specification from the book.
{title:Options}
{p 4 8 2}{cmd:web} indicates that the data are to be accessed from their location
on the spost website (http://www.indiana.edu/~jslsoc/spostdata/). This is
the default.
{p 4 8 2}{cmd:user} indicates that the data are to be accessed from the working directory
or somewhere else along the user's adopath (somewhere accessible
via {cmd:sysuse}).
{title:Notes}
{p 4 4 2}When specifying an estimation command with spex, you can add other
options (e.g., "nolog") and these will be passed along as additional options
to the estimation command.
