Some unevaluated code:

regress mpg weight

Some code, evaluted:

      .  sysuse auto

Some Notes

• Requires two more Stata packages (Weaver and Statax)
• Requires pandoc and may require pandoc's location
• Using backticks as code fences for unevaluated code is problematic, although the issue is reported as fixed?
• log commands should be prefixed "quietly", or they will appear in you document, and quietly log close appears unless it is specified "qui log c".
• The document text is written in comment blocks, rather than the dynamic content appearing in code blocks, as in other dynamic markdown implementations.
• Ordinary comments disappear from your document.
• You could actually build a document interactively, piece by piece.
