\title{Evaluate models from selection table}
\description{
Generate a list of fitted model objects from a \code{model.selection} table,
optionally using parallel computation in a cluster.
}
\usage{
get.models(object, subset, cluster = NA, ...)
}
\arguments{
\item{object}{ object returned by \code{\link{dredge}}. }
\item{subset}{subset of models, an expression evaluated within the model
selection table (see \sQuote{Details}).}
\item{cluster}{ optionally, a \code{cluster} object. If it is a valid
cluster, models are evaluated using parallel computation. }
\item{\dots}{additional arguments to update the models. For example, in
\code{lme} one may want to use \code{method = "REML"} while using \code{"ML"}
for model selection.}
}
\value{
\code{\link{list}} of fitted model objects.
}
\details{
The argument \code{subset} must be explicitely provided. This is to assure that
a potentially long list of models is not fitted unintentionally. To evaluate all
models, set \code{subset} to \code{NA} or \code{TRUE}.
If \code{subset} is a character vector, it is interpreted as names of rows to be
selected.
}
\note{
\code{pget.models} is still available, but is deprecated.
