Ich habe aus dem Netz ado-Files installiert. Die legt er dummerweise in $HOME/ado ab. Ich möchte das Verzeichnis gerne ändern, aber finde in den Settings dazu keinen Parameter. Mir war aber so, als ginge das irgendwie.

Möglicherweise -help adopath- ?

To change where Stata looks for ado-files, you can use the -sysdir- command.
For example:

sysdir set OLDPLACE "~/.ado"

This change is not recorded anywhere. Once you close and re-open Stata, the
change to the adopath reverts to the original defaults.

If you'd like to make the change "permanent" you can create a profile.do
do-file in your Stata 12 installation folder, like this:

vi /usr/local/stata12/profile.do

You would need to put the following commands into the profile.do do-file:

sysdir set PLUS "~/.ado/plus"
sysdir set PERSONAL "~/.ado/personal"
sysdir set OLDPLACE "~/.ado"
