## Auxiliary for Controlling the inner algorithm in a GAMLSS Fitting

### Description

Auxiliary function used for the inner iteration of `gamlss` algorithm. Typically only used when calling `gamlss` function through the option `i.control`.

### Usage

    glim.control(cc = 0.001, cyc = 50,  glm.trace = FALSE,
                 bf.cyc = 30, bf.tol = 0.001, bf.trace = FALSE,
                 ...)

### Arguments

`cc` | the convergence criterion for the algorithm
`cyc` | the number of cycles of the algorithm
`glm.trace` | whether to print at each iteration (TRUE) or not (FALSE)
`bf.cyc` | the number of cycles of the backfitting algorithm
`bf.tol` | the convergence criterion (tolerance level) for the backfitting algorithm
`bf.trace` | whether to print at each iteration (TRUE) or not (FALSE, the default)
`...` | for extra arguments

### Value

A list with the arguments as components
