Extend the functionality of the augsynth package by including the options for permuted placebo tests (raw and RMPSE-adjusted)
Move inference out of summary.augsynth() and into the augsynth() function by default
Extend plotting options, including placebo permutation plots and gap plots showing the divergence between the treated units and synthetic control over time
All of the changes to the augsynth package itself take place in augsynth.R and a new file, permutation.R.
The tobacco_replication directory contains a vignette demonstrating the new functionality and replicating the results of Abadie et al. (2010).
