Confidence intervals for odds ratios (immediate)

Description
-----------
.
^oddsrcii^ accepts cell frequencies (^a^, ^b^, ^c^, ^d^) from a 2x2 table and computes
the odds ratio and an associated confidence interval, using any of four differ-
ent estimation methods.  The @tabi@ command is used to create the table from the
four cell frequencies.
.
The second syntax above displays a brief reminder of the first syntax.
.
.
Options
-------
.
^level(^#^)^ specifies the desired confidence level.  May be fractional and may be
    specified as a percentage (97.5) or a proportion (.9633).
.
^tabopt(^tab_options^)^ is used to pass options to the @tabi@ command.
.
^notable^ suppresses all output from the @tabi@ command.
.
^all, none^ choose among the following confidence intervals in the obvious way.
.
^agresti^ produces the "endpoint-adjusted, independence smoothed" confidence in-
    terval recommended by Agresti (1999).  [This is the default.]
.
^cornf^ yields the Cornfield confidence interval, as computed by @cci@.
.
^gart^ computes the Anscombe-Gart-Haldane confidence interval.
.
^woolf^ requests the Woolf confidence interval (same as in @cci@).
.
