Description: Extends the fitdistr() function (of the MASS package) with several functions 
  to help the fit of a parametric distribution to non-censored or censored data. 
  Censored data may contain left censored, right censored and interval censored values, 
  with several lower and upper bounds. In addition to maximum likelihood estimation (MLE), 
  the package provides moment matching (MME), quantile matching (QME), maximum goodness-of-fit 
  estimation (MGE) and maximum spacing estimation (MSE) methods (available only for 
  non-censored data). Weighted versions of MLE, MME, QME and MSE are available. See e.g. 
  Casella & Berger (2002), Statistical inference, Pacific Grove, for a general introduction 
  to parametric estimation.
