\title{Fixed Effect Model}
%\usage{
%}
\description{Expressions of the form \code{X@RMfixed(beta)} can be used
within a formula of the type
\deqn{response ~ fixed effects + random effects + error term}
that specifies the Linear Mixed Model.
Important remark: \code{RMfixed} is NOT a function although
the parentheses notation is used to specify the vector of coefficients.
The matrix \eqn{X} is the design matrix and \eqn{\beta} is a vector of coefficients.
Note that a fixed effect of the form \eqn{X} is interpreted as
\code{X@RMfixed(beta=NA)} by default (and \eqn{\beta} is estimated
provided that the formula is used in \command{\link{RFfit}}).
Note that the \code{1} in an expression \code{1@RMfixed(beta)} is
interpreted as the identity matrix.
