+nonparametric analysis of covariance for regression curves or surfaces.
+Testing the equality or parallelism of nonparametric curves or surfaces is
+equivalent to analysis of variance (ANOVA) or analysis of covariance (ANCOVA)
+for one-sample functional data.  Three different testing methods are available
+in the package, including one based on L-2 distance, one based on an ANOVA
+statistic, and one based on variance estimators.")
