The license was not compatible with the project. I've since used GSL for
other things, but rarely. I own a hard copy of the GSL documentation.

I'll see what I can do to help. There's one thing immediately: "LUA"
should be "Lua" everywhere at http://www.nongnu.org/gsl-shell/! :) I
downloaded gsl-shell and ran one of the examples, so that's a start.
I've got GSL 1.10 at work (Ubuntu 8.04), but it compiled and ran okay.

I'll send you a message from my home address later today.

Agreed. 'm(1,2)(3.14159265)' is not as pretty as 'm[1,2] = 3.14159265'.
But the latter comes at the cost of a non-trivial VM mod - and an
excellent opportunity to learn.
