+  to earlier versions with, hopefully, less bugs. Version 0.98q0 has
+  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
+      the sample imach parameter file provided with the installer!
