I am trying to reproduce Figure 10.5 of Loader's book: Local Regression and 
Likelihood. The code provided in the book does not seem to work.
I have managed (a while ago) to get the accompanied R-code for the figures in 
the book (file called lffigs.R) from somewhere - cannot find it on the web 
anymore. The code in the .R script file does not work either.
Could anybody please direct me in finding an updated version of this document, 
or help me correct the code given in the file. The (out-of-date) code is as 
follows:

   data(claw54)
  fit1 <- locfit( ~ claw54, deg = 0, kern = "gauss", alpha = c(0, 0.315), ev =
    grid(100, ll = -3.5, ur = 2.7))
  fit2 <- locfit( ~ claw54, deg = 0, kern = "gauss", alpha = c(0, 0.985), ev =
    grid(100, ll = -3.5, ur = 2.7))
  x <- seq(-3.5, 2.7, length.out = 200)
  y <- dnorm(x, -1., 0.1) + dnorm(x, -0.5, 0.1) + dnorm(x, 0, 0.1) + dnorm(x,
    0.5, 0.1) + dnorm(x, 1., 0.1)
  y <- (y + 5 * dnorm(x))/10
  plot(fit1, get.data = T, main = "h=0.315", ylim = c(0, max(y)))
  lines(x, y, lty = 2)
  plot(fit2, get.data = T, main = "h=0.985", ylim = c(0, max(y)))
  lines(x, y, lty = 2)

THANKS FOR ANY ASSISTANCE.
ps: This code differs from that in the book. I have tried both, without 
success. Even if I just use, for example,
fit1 <- locfit( ~ claw54, deg = 0, kern = "gauss", alpha = c(0, 0.315))
I do not get the same result.
