Dear Statlisters,
I am using Stata 14.1.
When I perform the user-written command "mmp" from Lindsey and Sheater (2010), this is what happens:
1) If I make mistakes, they are properly noticed by Stata:
mmp
option mean() required
r(198);
mmp, mean(xb)
option smoother() required
r(198);
mmp, mean(xb) smoother()
option smoother() required
r(198);
2) If I perform the command (at least I think) correctly, it doesn't recognize it:
mmp, mean(xb) smoother (lowess)
unrecognized command
r(199);
Moreover:
3) If I investigate about the related files, everything seems ok:
sysdir
STATA: C:\Program Files (x86)\Stata14\
BASE: C:\Program Files (x86)\Stata14\ado\base\
SITE: C:\Program Files (x86)\Stata14\ado\site\
PLUS: c:\ado\plus\
PERSONAL: c:\ado\personal\
OLDPLACE: c:\ado\
which mmp
c:\ado\plus\m\mmp.ado
Furthermore, I find in folder "c:\ado\plus\m" the file "mmp.sthlp" and I can read the help when typing "help (mmp)".

(no packages require updating)
4) The software seems updated:

Do you have any suggestion for trouble-shooting this?
