-Imports: graphics, grDevices, MASS, RODBC, drc
-Description: drfit provides basic and easy-to-use functions for fitting
- dose-response curves to dose-response data, calculating some
- (eco)toxicological parameters and plotting the results. Functions that are
- fitted are the cumulative density function of the lognormal distribution
- (probit fit), of the logistic distribution (logit fit), of the weibull
- distribution (weibull fit) and a linear-logistic model ("linlogit" fit),
- derived from the latter, which is used to describe data showing stimulation
- at low doses (hormesis). In addition, functions checking, plotting and
- retrieving dose-response data retrieved from a database accessed via RODBC
- are included. As an alternative to the original fitting methods, the
- algorithms from the drc package can be used.

+Description: A somewhat outdated package of basic and easy-to-use functions for
+ fitting dose-response curves to continuous dose-response data, calculating some
+ (eco)toxicological parameters and plotting the results. Please consider using
+ the more powerful and actively developed 'drc' package. Functions that are
+ fitted are the cumulative density function of the lognormal distribution
+ (probit fit), of the logistic distribution (logit fit), of the weibull
+ distribution (weibull fit) and a linear-logistic model ("linlogit" fit),
+ derived from the latter, which is used to describe data showing stimulation at
+ low doses (hormesis). In addition, functions checking, plotting and retrieving
+ dose-response data retrieved from a database accessed via RODBC are included.
+ As an alternative to the original fitting methods, the algorithms from the drc
+ package can be used.
