request method for S3 object of class mer, package lme4.0

[kgturner]

This package is a great idea! Unfortunately for me it doesn't work with the model class I currently work with the most, S3 objects of class mer from package lme4.0 and all versions of lme4 prior to 1.1-7. Would be really great if it did.... I might try taking a crack at it myself, but could take quite a while.

Thanks for the suggestion! I've added tidiers for "mer" objects, such that they can be used something like:

library(lme4.0)
(fm1 <- lmer(Reaction ~ Days + (Days|Subject), sleepstudy))
tidy(fm1)
tidy(fm1, effects = "fixed")
augment(fm1)
glance(fm1)

Because I am not entirely familiar with this version of lme4 I might have missed some of the features you're interested in extracting from such objects (for example, the augment.merMod from the current lme4 includes a .fixed column; I'm not sure how to create the equivalent with lme4.0). Before I close this issue I thus want to give you a chance to try it out and let me know if there are problems. Thanks again!

Oooh, cool! Seems to work how I was hoping, appreciate it!
