Description: Functions for fitting continuous-time Markov and hidden
        Markov multi-state models to longitudinal data.  Designed for
        processes observed at arbitrary times in continuous time (panel
        data) but some other observation schemes are supported. Both
        Markov transition rates and the hidden Markov output process
        can be modelled in terms of covariates, which may be constant
        or piecewise-constant in time.
