Project / File management, workflow

[Eddy Simms]

I am trying to use the cdsave and related programs from package workflow from https://jslsoc.sitehost.iu.edu/stata but I get the error message:

package name:  workflow.pkg
        from:  https://jslsoc.sitehost.iu.edu/stata/

checking workflow consistency and verifying not already installed...
file https://jslsoc.sitehost.iu.edu/stata/workflow/cddrop1.ado not found
could not copy https://jslsoc.sitehost.iu.edu/stata/workflow/cddrop1.ado
(no action taken)

How can I install these programs - or is there a more 'modern' alternative?

You may find that workingdir does what you want, but also find dirtree very useful.

search workingdir
ssc d dirtree

I am trying to net install workingdir from https://jslsoc.sitehost.iu.edu/stata, but unfortunately, the website is (temporarily?) down.

It would be much appreciated if anyone could kindly share the workingdir.ado, or suggest any alternative for the command cdsave. Many thanks.

In a recent thread (below) Richard Williams shared a message from Prof. Long that his Indiana website had been taken down. I don't know if there are plans to restore it or host files elsewhere. Sometimes Stata Press will host ancillary files related to their books, perhaps they could do so for Workflow.

Long's spost13 files have migrated to Stanford:
net from https://spost.su.domains/ But, I suspect a lot of other stuff hasn't.
