# File to normalize Stata log files. Remove computer-specific,
# time-specific, and random components from log files.
# This enables identification of differences in Stata runs by
# using binary diffs (easy with a versioned project like one on SVN).

#To do: 
# deal with the unversioned env variable (quieted for now in ipums_migr...)

* Use the -net set- line before installing other packages
net set ado "${dir_base}/code/ado/"

net install `1' , all force from("`c(pwd)'/${dir_base}/code/ado-store/`letter1'/")
