Here's a toy example of an implementation using esttab. Basic idea is to store boottest output in estimation e() matrices and tell esttab to save these. Hope this helps! Code file on Dropbox here:

Resulting tex table looks like this, easily customizable with esttab. P-value and confidence intervals appear below each coefficient. With this approach you can still take advantage of other esttab features, and don't need to create the estimation matrix yourself.

I didn't realize you were doing this to add "boottest" estimates. Here is a previous example which does exactly that, even adding confidence intervals!

@owasow
! Your "Race as a Bundle of Sticks" paper was incredibly helpful to us in writing our paper, and really helped to sharpen how we think about and interpret gaps by census enumerator classification. Thanks for your awesome work!

Works for counties, but I actually wanted to find neighboring census blocks. There are >11million blocks in the US, so checking every pairwise combination would be huge. I first find neighboring states, then check for neighboring counties only within neighbor/own state, ...

Yes, the ":" syntax for locals is very useful! See "help extended_fcn" for documentation.
A few of my favorite applications:

- List union/intersection/difference
- Matrix values
- Word count
- Variable labels
