{title:Load example files and run example models}

{p 4 12 2}{cmd:spex} [{it:modelname}] [{it:filename}] [{cmd:,} {cmdab:w:eb} {cmdab:u:ser}]

{title:Description}

{p 4 4 2}
{cmd:spex} allows users to easily use example files and models from
Long and Freese's {it: Regression Models for Categorical Dependent Variables}
{it: Using Stata}.  Typing {cmd:spex} {it:filename} will load the specified 
example dataset, while typing {cmd:spex} {it:modelname} will estimate that
model using data and an example specification from the book.

{title:Options}

{p 4 8 2}{cmd:web} indicates that the data are to be accessed from their location 
on the spost website (http://www.indiana.edu/~jslsoc/spostdata/).  This is 
the default.

{p 4 8 2}{cmd:user} indicates that the data are to be accessed from the working directory 
or somewhere else along the user's adopath (somewhere accessible 
via {cmd:sysuse}).

{title:Notes}

{p 4 4 2}When specifying an estimation command with spex, you can add other 
options (e.g., "nolog") and these will be passed along as additional options 
to the estimation command.
