#' Project Variables
#'
#' \code{projvar} uses the matrices from \code{projdummies} to project a variable.
#' In practice, all dependent and independent variables must be project for the two way regression
#'
#'
#' @param var A vector of a single variable
#' @param struc The output of \code{projdummies}, containing matrices necessary to project
#' @return A list will be returned with the following named values:
#'         var - the projected variable
#'         delta, tau - intermediate variables
#'
