Download the MLSFIT program here

The MLSFIT program described on this page about least squares fitting can be downloaded here. Right-click and "save as" to download a gzipped tar file of MLSFIT with Readme, source, Makefile, a binary for Linux x86, and a sample input data file. If you want to compile from source, you will need to edit the makefile to point at your copy of the PGPLOT library.

You can also just download the Readme file. In order to understand some of the issues with least-squares fitting, you may want to read the Readme file for LSTSQ and some sections of my paper at astro-ph/0609091.
