#' @title Maximum-likelihood Fitting of the duration dependent GEV Distribution
#' @description Modified \code{\link[ismev]{gev.fit}} function for Maximum-likelihood fitting 
#' for the duration dependent generalized extreme 
#' value distribution, following Koutsoyiannis et al. (1998), including generalized linear 
#' modelling of each parameter.
#' @param xdat A vector containing maxima for different durations. 
#' This can be obtained from \code{\link{IDF.agg}}.
#' @param ds A vector of aggregation levels corresponding to the maxima in xdat. 
#' 1/60 corresponds to 1 minute, 1 corresponds to 1 hour.
#' @param ydat A matrix of covariates for generalized linear modelling of the parameters 
#' (or NULL (the default) for stationary fitting). The number of rows should be the same as the 
#' length of xdat.
#' @param  mul,sigl,shl,thetal,etal Numeric vectors of integers, giving the columns of ydat that contain
#'  covariates for generalized linear modelling of the parameters (or NULL (the default) 
#'  if the corresponding parameter is stationary).
#'  Parameters are: modified location, scale_0, shape, duration offset, duration exponent repectively.
#' @param mulink,siglink,shlink,thetalink,etalink Link functions for generalized linear 
#' modelling of the parameters, created with \code{\link{make.link}}.
#' @param init.vals vector of length 5, giving initial values for parameter intercepts
#' used to model the parameters (order: mu, sigma, xi, theta, eta). If rep(NA,5) (the default) is given, initial parameters are obtained 
#' internally by fitting the GEV separately for each duration and applying a linear model to obtain the 
#' duration dependency of the location and shape parameter.
#' @param theta_zero Logical value, indicating if theta should be estimated (FALSE, the default) or
#' should stay zero. 
#' @param show Logical; if TRUE (the default), print details of the fit.
#' @param method The optimization method used in \code{\link{optim}}.
#' @param maxit The maximum number of iterations.
#' @param ... Other control parameters for the optimization.
#' @return A list containing the following components. 
#' A subset of these components are printed after the fit. 
#' If \code{show} is TRUE, then assuming that successful convergence is indicated, 
#' the components nllh, mle and se are always printed. 
#' \item{nllh}{single numeric giving the negative log-likelihood value} 
#' \item{mle}{numeric vector giving the MLE's for the modified location, scale_0, shape, 
#' duration offset and duration exponent, resp.} 
#' \item{se}{numeric vector giving the standard errors for the MLE's (in the same order)}
#' \item{trans}{A logical indicator for a non-stationary fit.}
#' \item{model}{A list with components mul, sigl, shl, thetal and etal.}
#' \item{link}{A character vector giving inverse link functions.}
#' \item{conv}{The convergence code, taken from the list returned by \code{\link{optim}}. 
#' A zero indicates successful convergence.}
#' \item{data}{data is standardized to standard Gumbel.} 
#' \item{cov}{The covariance matrix.} 
#' \item{vals}{Parameter values for every data point.}
#' \item{init.vals}{Initial values that where used.}
#' \item{ds}{Durations for every data point.}
