[R] get deviance from glm() for given parameter values

[Emmanuel Paradis]

Dear all,

I would like to get glm() return its results (at least the deviance) for
some given parameter values (ie without actually fitting the model). I
tried to set `maxit = 0' but this does not work, eg:

> glm(y ~ x, start = c(1, 1), maxit = 0)
Error in glm.control(...) : maximum number of iterations must be > 0


Any idea?

Thanks in advance.
