Use zmodel2string(zeligDescribeModel()) to generate an XML instance describing a model. Use zeligModelDependencies to generate a list of package dependencies for models. Use zeligGetSpecial to get the name special function, if any, to apply to the outcome variables. All functions return NULL if results are not available for that model.
