you'll find a simple script and the dataset to replicate Lee's section
16.9.2 (coditional logit). A couple of things that need to be fixed
appeared when you use the new mechanism...
Thanks for the report and example.
I'll reply at greater length before long, but for now I'll just
say that I've seen similar things myself, and I'm thinking of
restoring the libset option I junked, namely a switch, "R_lib on",
to use libR, with the default being to use the R binary. libR
ought to be much faster when a script contains multiple R blocks,
but it has some serious oddities. The points you mention as
"needing fixed" are not trivial to get right!
Allin.
