If you are capable of installing source packages and if you know what a 
general linear hypothesis test is, you can:

download 'hpower' to your computer

 	http://gd.tuwien.ac.at/languages/R/src/contrib/hpower_0.1-0.tar.gz

and install it. Then

library( hpower )
?glhpwr


should get you started.

Indeed, it does so on both my Ubuntu and Win XP boxes.  The problem is
that the DESCRIPTION file does not have a proper "Maintainer" line.  If
you simply add the line:

Maintainer: no-one <noone at nowhere.com>

and follow the "regular" procedures, it should install.  However, I am not
so sure that this is the right thing to do with regards to permissions
etc.  Anyone any advice?
