Hi, I was wondering if there was some sort of package or function that 
calculated asymmetric confidence intervals for small proportions.  I thought of 
both the epicalc and epitools package, but I am hoping to find something where 
you can just plug in a standard error and point estimate and it will output the 
upper and lower CI bounds.
Thanks!

If you want asymmetric CLs (a good idea) you can't base them on standard errors. See the binconf function in the Hmisc package for some solutions.
