I think it might make sense to change the stata executable flag to se so that the abbreviation matches the new naming conventions.

I revised this function's doc string. Let me know if it needs further changes.

It will be clearer to rewrite this try/except block as an if/else using os.path.keys().

There's a typo in the docstring.

One more comment @M-R-Sullivan. Will you be making associated edits to standardize our naming in template? |

@arosenbe - I made changes as suggested by my responses to your comments. I also standardised |

Looks good to me @M-R-Sullivan |

For gslab-econ/template#45. Specifically, I created this branch in response to this comment.
I should have made
stata_executableour standard term for referring to users' Stata executables here (rather thanstata_flavor,sf,user_executable, etc.).
