Hello all. I could really use some help in writing a new glm link function
in order to run an analysis of daily nest survival rates. I've struggled
with this for weeks now, but I'm afraid I can't figure out even how to get
started (fairly new at R, complete beginner in writing functions in R!).

Essentially, all I will be doing is running a logistic regression, but with
a different link function. The link function is a modification of the logit
link:
g(theta) = natural log( (theta ^(1/t)) / (1- (theta ^(1/t)) ) ;
where t is the length of the interval between nest checks.

Could anyone help? I hope the answer is rather simple, since this just adds
the exponent (1/t) to the logit link function; but I have yet to figure out
how to do this.

Thanks in advance for any help.
