I am grateful to Marilia Sa Carvalho, FIOCRUZ, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, for many comments and suggestions, and to the following individuals for translations of messages into other languages: Philippe Grojean (French), Matjaz Jeran (Slovenian), Anton Korobeinikov (Russian), Manuel Munoz Marquez (Spanish), and Marilia Sa Carvalho (Portuguese).
The plug-in is tightly integrated with the R Commander interface; see the following menus: Data -> Survival data", Statistics -> Survival analysis, Statistics -> Fit Models, Models -> Hypothesis tests, Models -> Numerical diagnostics, Models -> Graphs.
