<br>
I just wanted to ask whether the profile likelihood functionality was available<br>
in ADMB-RE? (I'm getting a runtime error when using the -lprof options).<br>
<br>
Once again, many thanks for making this software freely available and<br>
accessible through R. I'm really enjoying getting more familiar with it, and<br>
putting it through its paces.<br>
