esttab：在 indicates() 之后订购 _cons

Question

使用用户命令 esttab 时，我想将常量的估计值放在包含 indicates() 变量文本的行之后（是）。

sysuse auto
eststo m1: regress price weight length headroom i.foreign
esttab m1, indicate("International FE = *.foreign") order(length weight *.foreign headroom _cons)

我尝试在订单函数中包含不同版本的指示变量（例如 *.foreign、“International FE”），但似乎都不起作用。

考虑到风格约定，这对于表格布局来说是一件奇怪的事情，因此如果不分叉

estout/esttab

，这可能是不可能的，这遵守了这些约定。

但是，如果您愿意将表保存为某种文本文件，您可以编写一个 sed 脚本，将以 _cons 开头的行和下面的行移动到第一个 h 行之前。您可能可以在 Stata 中使用 Python 做同样的事情。

这是一个适用于 MacOS 版本

sed

的示例。这是 bash 脚本：

#!/bin/bash

# This script modifies a text file by cutting a block of lines starting with '_cons',
# the line above it, and the next two lines. It then inserts this block above the third
# occurrence of a line that consists solely of hyphens (e.g., '--------------------').
# A blank line is also inserted before the cut block.

# How to use the script:
# 1. Save the script to a file, e.g., 'process_file.sh'.
# 2. Make the script executable by running: chmod +x process_file.sh
# 3. Run the script by providing the filename of the text file to modify:
#    ./process_file.sh table.txt
#    Replace 'table.txt' with the actual filename you want to process.

# Ensure a filename is provided as an argument
if [ $# -eq 0 ]; then
  echo "Usage: $0 filename"
  exit 1
fi

# Assign the first argument (filename) to the variable 'filename'
filename="$1"

# Create a temporary file to store the cut lines and assign its name to 'tempfile'
tempfile=$(mktemp)

# Use sed to find the line starting with '_cons', capture it along with the next two lines,
# and store them in the temporary file
sed -n '/^_cons/{N;N;p;}' "$filename" > "$tempfile"

# Remove the '_cons' line and the next two lines from the original file
sed -i '' '/^_cons/{N;N;d;}' "$filename"

# Find the line number of the third occurrence of a line containing only hyphens (---)
# The grep command finds all such lines, then sed selects the third one, and cut extracts the line number
line_number=$(grep -n '^[-]\{3,\}$' "$filename" | sed -n '3p' | cut -d: -f1)

# Use the 'ed' text editor in silent mode to edit the file:
# - Move to the line number found above
# - Insert the contents of the temporary file one line above the third hyphen line
# - Insert a blank line before the pasted content
# - Write the changes and quit the editor
ed -s "$filename" <<EOF
$line_number
-1r $tempfile
-2i

.
w
q
EOF

# Remove the temporary file as it's no longer needed
rm "$tempfile"

# Print a message indicating the file has been successfully modified
echo "File $filename has been modified."

以下是在 Stata 中使用它的方法：
