R help - Jan 2003 - Tobit regression

Does anyone have an R function for the estimation of Tobit regression 
models (for censored responses), as described, e.g., in Davidson, R. 
and MacKinnon, J.G., 1993, Section 15.7, Estimation and Inference in
Econometrics, Oxford University Press? 

Thanks. FC.

     Asymptotics is the art of knowing where to be sloppy
     and where to be precise.

See survreg in library(survival). Choosing dist="gaussian" should give
the tobit result if I remember correctly. It's been several years since 
I've worked with them.
