glm (Splus 6) and glim (old version)

[Ka Yee Yeung <kayee@u.washington.edu>]

Hi,

I am wondering what is the difference between "glm" in Splus version 6
and "glim" in some older versions of Splus (Splus versions that existed
in 1994-1996).

I would like to make use of some old S+ code that calls "glim". When I did
"help (glim)", I learned that "glim" is replaced by "glm" but cannot find
any information on the difference between the two functions. In
particular, I would like to know what the "scale" argument to "glim"
means.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
