I'm sure this is off the subject, but does anyone know where I can get the source code for MinPack (fortran). Any help will be appreciated.

Any help will be appreciated. In IEEE Potentials magazine, February '89, there was an article on page 37 describing a public domain software library called netlib. You can send a request to the system for a specific software subroutine from a specific library (e.g. MinPack), and the sender will receive the requested source code in the mail. The e-mail address is: netlib@mcs.anl.gov The example session given by Dongarra and Grosse in the article is as follows: mail research!netlib send dqag from quadpack send gaussq from go A summary of the command structure given in the article is: send dgeco from linpack ( send dgeco and all related routines it calls ) send only dgeco from linpack ( only the requested routine ) send list of dgeco from linpack ( just a list of related file names ) find eigenvalue ( retreive the names of routines related to the keyword ) They say in the article that response time depends on the network. 5-10 min for ARPAnet, and uucp from minutes to days. The only drawback is that they don't send out entire libraries. Also, NA-DIGEST is an archive of mailings to NA distribution list. I hope this was of use. (Oh yeah, Minpack is on their list!) I took my info from the aforementioned article, so interested parties should look it up since it is much more detailed.
