[R] Repeated Measures MANOVA in R

[Michael Friendly]

I have an in press paper on HE plots,
http://www.math.yorku.ca/SCS/Papers/heplots.pdf
that describes methods to visualize the dimensionality of effects
in MLMs.  The implementation is in SAS, but there's a link to
a rudimentary R function in the paper.
