Check our wiki for details. No, I have no desire to re-invent the wheel. Now I have a stimulus to try and get IPOPT and ASCEND to co-operate. The problem from the Lagrange multiplier site was just a toy, to see what happened. The real problem on which I want to work is more complex, but still probably trivial for ASCEND. > That's OK.

I only sent the message to your private mail becasuse I thought the list was not working. I never see messages sent to it in my mailbox.
