     These functions provide information about the general-
     ized logistic distribution with location parameter
     equal to `m', dispersion equal to `s', and family
     parameter equal to `f'.  `dglogis' gives the density,
     `pglogis' gives the distribution function, `hglogis'
     gives the hazard function.

     The generalized logistic distribution has density

          f(y) = f sqrt(3) exp(-sqrt(3) (y-m)/(s pi))/
          (s pi (1+exp(-sqrt(3) (y-m)/(s pi)))^(f+1))

     where m is the location parameter of the distribution,
     s is the dispersion, and f is the family parameter.

     f=1 gives a logistic distribution.
