Below are the instructions for retrieving my S-plus + C programs for HBF
estimation. There is a Makefile for compiling the C programs, and a log
file from a sample S-plus session using these routines.

Please note this software is provided as is, without much documentation,
and certainly no warranty or support! As a courtesy to me, please cite any
major use of this code, and please send me email if you add any nice
features, fix bugs, etc. and want to share them.
