     Update the parameters in an object by using an optimizer such as
     `optim' or `nlm' to maximize the log-likelihood.

       x: An object of a suitable class, such as `reStruct' to be
          optimized

   value: A list that contains components `msMaxIter', a non-negative
          integer specifying the maximum number of iterations, 
          `msVerbose', a logical value that, when `TRUE', requests
          verbose output, `msTol', a numeric tolerance for declaring
          convergence, and `optimizer', a character vector whose first
          element is `"optim"' or `"nlm"'

_V_a_l_u_e:

     The object `x', updated.

_S_e_e _A_l_s_o:

     `reStruct-class', `lmeControl'
