I am beginning to explore the mitools package contributed by Thomas
Lumley (thank you Thomas) and  I have a few questions:

(1) In the examples given in the mitools documentation, the only family
argument used is family=binomial. Does the package support
family=gaussian and other link functions? I ran the with function with
family=gaussian and I obtained results, but I am not sure if gaussian is
supported by the package, so I don't know if I should trust the values I
obtained.

(2) In the documentation, the smi dataset is used i.e. data(smi). Could
someone tell me how I can print the data associated with smi?

Thanks
John
