        !             2: 
        !             3:        * imach.c (Repository): 
        !             4:        Agnes added a direct estimation of mortality (without the need of
        !             5:        computing period prevalence and differential mortality). Thus here
        !             6:        is version 0.97a which has been distributed to some people at
        !             7:        REVES 16 in Brugge using an Inno setup.exe for PCs. Estimates of
        !             8:        mortality using covariates is not done today. Estimating direct
        !             9:        mortality is a very different process because it doesn't need
        !            10:        interpolation because it is easy to get the lx from the force of
        !            11:        the mortality mux in the simplest case as for a Gompertz (log mux
        !            12:        = a + b*x . But we have been able to incorporate the new code
        !            13:        within former imach program (0.96d) without deteriorating too much
        !            14:        the understanding of the program.

                     17: 
                     18:        * imach.c (Module): On windows (cygwin) function asctime_r doesn't
                     19:        exist so I changed back to asctime which exists.
                     20:        (Module): Version 0.96b

                     23: 
                     24:        * imach.c (Module): Some bugs corrected for windows. Also, when
                     25:        mle=-1 a template is output in file "or"mypar.txt with the design
                     26:        of the covariance matrix to be input.

                     29: 
                     30:        * imach.c (Repository): Duplicated warning errors corrected.
                     31:        (Repository): Elapsed time after each iteration is now output. It
                     32:        helps to forecast when convergence will be reached. Elapsed time
                     33:        is stamped in powell.  We created a new html file for the graphs
                     34:        concerning matrix of covariance. It has extension -cov.htm.

                     37: 
                     38:        * imach.c (Repository): Create a sub-directory where all the secondary files are. Only imach, htm, gp and r(imach) are on the main directory. Correct time and other things.
                     39: 
                     40: 2003-06-18  Brouard Nicolas  <brouard@homebrou>
                     41: 
                     42:        * imach.c (Repository): Suppress abusive calls to append to file html (solution was to put fichtm as a global variable. Version 0.96
                     43: 
1.7       brouard    44: 2003-06-17  Brouard Nicolas  <brouard@homebrou>
                     45: 
                     46: 
                     47:        * imach.c (Repository): Check when date of death was earlier that
                     48:        current date of interview. It may happen when the death was just
                     49:        prior to the death. In this case, dh was negative and likelihood
                     50:        was wrong (infinity). We still send an "Error" but patch by
                     51:        assuming that the date of death was just one stepm after the
                     52:        interview.
                     53:        (Repository): Because some people have very long ID (first column)
                     54:        we changed int to long in num[] and we added a new lvector for
                     55:        memory allocation. But we also truncated to 8 characters (left
                     56:        truncation)
                     57: 
                     58:        (Repository): No more line truncation errors.

                     61: 
                     62:        * imach.c (Repository): Add of a routine likelione (likelihood
                     63:        only once) which prints on a text file
                     64:        (ilk) the contributions to the likelihood for each
                     65:        individual/wave.
                     66: 
                     67: 2003-06-13  Brouard Nicolas  <brouard@homebrou>
                     68:        * imach.c (Repository): Replace "freqsummary" at a correct
                     69:        place. It differs from routine "prevalence" which may be called
                     70:        many times. Probs is memory consuming and must be used with
                     71:        parcimony.
                     72: 
                     73: 2003-06-17    <brouard@BROUARD>
                     74: 
                     75:        * timeval.h (Module): Added included file to make use of
                     76:        gettimeofday working on win32 with cygwin.
                     77: 
                     78: 2003-05-16  Brouard Nicolas  <brouard@brouard>
                     79:        * imach.c (Module): Insert of a warning if the delay between two
                     80:        waves is negative.
                     81: 
                     82:        * imach.c (Module): 
                     83: 
                     84: 2003-05-03    <brouard@BROUARD>
                     85: 
                     86:        * imach.c: Some cleaning
                     87: 
                     88: 2003-03-28    <brouard@BROUARD>
                     89:        * imach.c (Module): In version up to 0.92 likelihood was computed
                     90:        as if date of death was unknown. Death was treated as any other
                     91:        health state: the date of the interview describes the actual state
                     92:        and not the date of a change in health state. The former idea was
                     93:        to consider that at each interview the state was recorded
                     94:        (healthy, disable or death) and IMaCh was corrected; but when we
                     95:        introduced the exact date of death then we should have modified
                     96:        the contribution of an exact death to the likelihood. This new
                     97:        contribution is smaller and very dependent of the step unit
                     98:        stepm. It is no more the probability to die between last interview
                     99:        and month of death but the probability to survive from last
                    100:        interview up to one month before death multiplied by the
                    101:        probability to die within a month. Thanks to Chris
                    102:        Jackson for correcting this bug.  Former versions increased
                    103:        mortality artificially. The bad side is that we add another loop
                    104: 
                    105: 
                    106:        which slows down the processing. The difference can be up to 10%
                    107: 
                    108: 
                    109:        lower mortality.
