[ESS] Stata-se with ESS

I'd like to be able to start stata-se in ess.  I've googled a bit, and
I can't find a way to do it.

This site (https://stat.ethz.ch/pipermail/ess-help/2004-December/002330.html)
addressed the question 7 years ago. I tried to follow the
instructions, modifying the file ess-sta-d.el, but it didn't work.
The method seemed promising; I'm surprised it didn't work.

This site (http://www.stata.com/statalist/archive/2005-01/msg00514.html)
addressed the question 6 years ago, and suggests making a link in
/usr/local/bin/.  I can't do this since I'm using tramp to run stata
through emacs over ssh.

Is there a way to modify the ess lisp files so that ess always calls stata-se?

Thanks,
Paul
