Re: use LAPACK routine for triangular systems?

[Bill Denney]

I don't know how it is currently done, but may we be able to generate code 
from netlib code automatically into octave code?  I think that I recall 
(though feel free to correct me if I'm wrong) that most netlib code is 
generated automatically from templates?  If it is, how difficult would it 
be for someone in the octave community to add automatic octave code 
generation to those templates?
