Hi Michael. This is essentially the method of Pagel (1994). Though often interpreted as a test for correlated evolution of two binary characters, the model that is actually being fit is one in which the rate of transition 0->1 (or vice versa) in character A is affected by the state of binary

[R-sig-phylo] [function like ratebystate, but for discrete characters?]

Hello, Quick question. I'm interested in whether the presence/absence of character 'A' affects the rate of evolution in character 'B'. Is there a function that will do this for two or more discrete characters? I've seen ratebystate {phytools} for continuous data; but my data are all binary!
