gbhill - Hill Maximum Likelihhod estimation
gbhill [options] <function
definition>
Maximum Likelihood estimation of distribution based on extremal
(tail) observations. The distributions included are: exponential, pareto1,
pareto3, gaussian. Provide the name of the distribution and the initial
values of the parameters in the command line.
