  Description     : GNU R package providing extensions and additions to the vcd package
 A GNU R package providing additional data sets, methods and
 documentation to complement the 'vcd' package for Visualizing
 Categorical Data and the 'gnm' package for Generalized Nonlinear Models.
 In particular, 'vcdExtra' extends mosaic, assoc and sieve plots from
 'vcd' to handle 'glm()' and 'gnm()' models and adds a 3D version in
 'mosaic3d'. Additionally, methods are provided for comparing and
 visualizing lists of 'glm' and 'loglm' objects. This package is now a
 support package for the book, "Discrete Data Analysis with R" by Michael
 Friendly and David Meyer.

 This package is being packaged by Jonathon Love, under the sponsorship of Andreas Tilles
