+
+The R package **pfm** provides some utilities for dealing with FOCUS pesticide fate modelling tools,
+(currently only TOXSWA cwa files), made available under the GNU public license.
+This means:
+
+    This program is free software: you can redistribute it and/or modify it under
+    the terms of the GNU General Public License as published by the Free Software
+    Foundation, either version 3 of the License, or (at your option) any later
+    version.
+
+    This program is distributed in the hope that it will be useful, but WITHOUT
+    ANY WARRANTY; without even the implied warranty of MERCHANTABILITY or FITNESS
+    FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE.  See the GNU General Public License for more
+    details.
+
+    You should have received a copy of the GNU General Public License along with

+
+## Installation
+
+You can install the package from [github](http://github.com/jranke/pfm), e.g.
+using the `devtools` package.  Using `quick = TRUE` skips docs,
+multiple-architecture builds, demos, and vignettes, to make installation as
+fast and painless as possible.
+
+```{r, eval = FALSE}
+library(devtools)
+install_github("jranke/pfm", subdir = "pkg", quick = TRUE)
+```
+
+To read in and analyse a cwa file:
+
+```{r}
+library(pfm)
+example_cwa <- read.TOXSWA_cwa("00003s_pa.cwa")
+plot(example_cwa)
+example_cwa$get_events(c(20, 100))
+example_cwa$moving_windows(c(7, 21))
+print(example_cwa)
+```
