-  one main advantage and one main disadvantage:
-  <ul>
-    <li> If version 0.98q0 is run after version 0.98p0, ie using the
-    estimated parameter file (the imach file which first letter is 'r'
-    contains this estimated parameters, change mle=0 to mle=1), this
-    new run could give more accurate results because an error in a
-    routine of Numerical Recipes in C did not give the correct
-    minimal). This program can also be used when the stepm value is
-    reduced up to 1 (there are more chances to get a convergence with
-    one month if you already got convergence for a larger stepm).
-      
-    <li> Version 0.98p0 has more chance to converge with starting
-     values equal to 0 than version 0.98q0 which diverges even with
