R help - Sep 2004 - What is nu-regression for svm?

Does anyone knows what is the nu-regression option for the type parameter in 
svm (from package e1071)? I cannot find any explanation on that and I have a 
reasonable understanding on svm fundamentals.

Thanks

Joao Moreira

Look up the reference given at the help-page, it tells you exactly what
nu-regression does.
