[R] New package: normalp

[Elio Mineo]

Dear All,
a new package, called normalp, is on the CRAN web site.
This package contains a collection of utilities refered to a normal of 
order p distribution, also known as General Error Distribution.
This is the content of the INDEX file:
dnormp                  Density function of a Normal of Order p 
Distribution.
estimatep               Estimation of p.
graphnp                 Plot of Normal of order p distributions.
kurtosis                Indexes of kurtosis.
lmp                     Fitted linear model with normal of order p errors.
paramp                  Estimation of location and scale parameters.
plot.lmp                Diagnostic plots for an lmp object.
plot.simul.lmp          Plots of the results of a simulation plan on a
                        linear regression model.
plot.simul.mp           Plots of the results of a simulation plan on the 
parameters
                        of a normal of order p distribution.
pnormp                  Probability Function of a Normal of Order p
                        Distribution.
qnormp                  Quantiles of a Normal of Order p Distribution.
qqnormp                 Quantile-Quantile plot for a normal of order p 
distribution.
rnormp                  Pseudo-random numbers from a Normal of Order p 
Distribution.
simul.lmp               Simulation planning for a linear regression
                        model with errors distributed as a Normal of 
Order p.
simul.mp                Simulation planning for the parameters of a 
normal of order p
                        distribution.
summary.lmp             Summarize linear model fits with normal of order 
p errors.
summary.simul.lmp       Summarize simulation results on linear 
regression model.

Any comment or suggestion is graetly appreciated.
I hope this package can be useful for the R comunity.
Greetings
