[R] locfit and latest R version

[Stuart Barker (Prof)]

I have been using some old R scripts that were prepared for me using 
R Version 1.9.0. In these, there is a call to
library(locfit)
and with this version of R, I have no problem.

But needing to upgrade to the latest version of R, I find these 
scripts no longer work, and with
help(locfit)
I get
Error in help(locfit): Object locfit not found

So my question is -
what is available that has replaced locfit, and that will do the same 
thing as locfit, but with the latest R version?

You will realise from this that I have no expertise in using R or in 
writing R scripts, and will greatly appreciate any advice.

Many thanks

Stuart Barker
