mesa-users] dlnP/dlnMu ?

[Bill Paxton]

The routine eos_get_everything returns all of the HELM results in  
addition to the usual mesa/eos results.
In eos_def you'll find a long list of integer parameter definitions  
for the results from helm.  The ones starting 'h_dp' are the  
derivatives of pressure, and 'h_dpda' is the partial wrt abar,  
'h_dpdz' is the partical wrt zbar, etc.
