I stand corrected, although confidence.ellipse is a plotting function, and may not be quite what the questioner had in mind.

Cheers,

Simon.

See confidence.ellipse() in the car() package. (Found from an R site search
on "Scheffe")

 Subject: Re: [R] Anova with Scheffe Tests

 Hi,

 I don't think there are any packages on CRAN that implement Scheffe's
 test. If you don't mind using another multiple comparisons procedure,
 you could look at ?TukeyHSD and/or the multcomp package.
 Alternatively, you could write your own function to do Scheffe's
 test. At least one other person has done that. See the following post
 in the R-help archive
 http://finzi.psych.upenn.edu/R/Rhelp02a/archive/19393.html. I can't
 vouch for whether that person's function works properly, but it
 shouldn't be hard to hand-check it, and improve it. You could search
 R-help yourself and maybe come up with other solutions.

 Cheers,

 Simon.
