[R] Modality Test

[Mark Difford]

Hi Amin,

And I have just remembered that there is a function called curveRep in Frank
Harrell's Hmisc package that might be useful, even if not quite in the
channel of your enquiry. curveRep was added to the package after my
struggles, so I never used it and so don't know how well it performs (quite
well, I would think).

Regards, Mark.
