My windows machine complains that your rundolines files are virus-infected, and doesn't allow me to download it.
Is this a false alarm? Thanks in advance!

Hello. I this it's a false alarm. Please disable your anti-virus software and try again? If you're worried, you could try it in another machine and ensure everything is in order. Also, add the rundolines programme in the virus detection exclusion list where possible. I had a similar issue and it was resolved by this. Let me know if you encounter any other issues. Thanks.

By the way, I wonder you don't need to set shortcuts in Notepad++ manually, as the provided files contain configuration files?

Also, I had some success running the Stata code in notebook style in VSCode. I'll update it after more testruns.

Thank you for this clear tutorial. I'm having the same issue as jk-shin01 above. Unfortunately, I cannot disable my anti-virus software myself, as my IT department will not let me. They'd like more information on rundolines.exe. Do you have more info on this? I will also contact Friedrich Huebler. Many thanks.

Thanks for sharing your experience. As illustrated here (https://huebler.blogspot.com/2008/04/stata.html), the rundolines.exe programme allows us to run Stata code via external code editors, and it is safe to use. Convincing the IT department to obtain permission could be tricky, though. Sorry, I assumed users have access to their own devices, rather than work-managed devices.

I wonder placing the rundolines programme under the C:\Users folder could do the trick. I'll try with my work laptop and get back to you later.
