se.contrast

After a one-way anova, se.contrast computes the standard error of a
contrast, but not the value of the contrast itself. Wouldn't this be
useful? Am I missing something?

Compatibility with S, plus `does what it says on the box'.  It was written
to make some of the MASS code work under R.

If you want the contrast and its se, try estimable() in package gmodels
(in gregmisc).

se.contrast would be more useful if anyone ever wrote an aovlist method.
(But, 6 years later, I still have not, and rarely missed it.)
