abstract: Tools for fitting generalized competing event (GCE) models and estimating
  covariate effects on omega-plus, the ratio of the hazard for an event of interest
  to the hazard for a competing event, on both the cause-specific (Cox) and subdistribution
  (Fine-Gray) hazard scales. Confidence intervals and p-values are obtained from the
  Lunn-McNeil (1995) stacked (augmented) data approach. The package builds GCE risk
  scores from the model linear predictor, identifies risk-score cutpoints that maximize
  the separation in omega-plus between groups, and produces cumulative incidence ("alligator")
  plots by risk group and calibration plots of predicted versus observed omega-plus.
