Hello,

It was my fault. I should send a message to this list announcing these
changes. There were also some similar changes in the 'descriptive'
package:

cfrec -> continuous_freq
dfrec -> discrete_freq
ncmoment -> noncentral_moment
cmoment -> central_moment
vc -> cv
meandev -> mean_deviation
mediandev -> median_deviation
harmean -> harmonic_mean
geomean -> geometric_mean
pearskewness -> pearson_skewness
quarskewness -> quartile_skewness
listvar -> global_variances
listdep -> list_correlations

As Robert said, '? distrib' will give you a complete information about
the changes in the distribution package.

Sorry for the inconveniences. And thanks for your interest in 'distrib'.

Yours,
