These scripts do a variety to convenience things on the ECCO BioHPC systems. None are required. You can also browse the scripts to see how you could use them individually.

These scripts allow for running one-line commands to start an interactive graphical Stata session.
srun-xstatawill run a single-CPU using Stata GUI (preferred). If you absolutely need more cores, use srun-xstata-mp.
There is no single way. One process may be:
[[ -d $HOME/bin ]] || mkdir $HOME/bin
cd $HOME/binthen git clone this repository, which should created $HOME/bin/biohpc-scripts. Now add it to your path, f.i. in $HOME/.bashrc:
echo '# added for biohpc-scripts
export PATH=$HOME/bin/biohpc-scripts:$PATH' >> $HOME/.bashrcAdjust as necessary, and don't run this twice.
You can then test whether the install took by logging into a new login shell and typing
which xstata.sh
