Installing ado files in tombstone

If you want to install user made programs and use them on tombstone, you can make a directory for the ado files in your profile and have Stata direct to the directory. Suppose you want to install IV/GMM on tombstone.

1. Log in to tombstone using your username and password
2. make a directory called ado/plus
mkdir ado/plus
3. start stata
stata
4. connect to the location of ado file. IV/GMM is at http://www.stata-journal.com/software/sj7-4. You may find the location by typing findit program_name (replace the program_name with the name of the program you want to install)
findit gmm
net from http://www.stata-journal.com/software/sj7-4
5. net set other ado/plus
6. net install st0030_3, all

To check if the installation was successful, see if the help page for the program comes up. In this case, for example,

help ivhettest

will bring up the help window for ivhettest, which is one of the programs installed with IV/GMM ado files.
