Description:                              Optimal Stellar Models (OSM)
        
        OSM is a python program that implements the Levenberg-Marquardt method for the calculation of optimal stellar models with the CESTAM code. The minimization takes into account fundamental constraints as well as seismic constraints. Cross-correlations between the seismic constraints are also take into account in the minimization criterion. 
        
        * Requirements:
        
        - CESTAM (version 3.2 or newer) : a free code for the calculation of  the structures and evolutions of stars ;
        - python-cestam, a Python library associated with CESTAM (developed by J. Marques), this module is included in the CESTAM package ;
        - ADIPLS : a code for computing adiabatic stellar modes (http://astro.phys.au.dk/~jcd/adipack.n/) ;
        - Python (2.7 or newer) , Numpy and Scipy. 
        
        * Installation
        
        You must first install CETSTAM and ADIPLS, please refer to their associated documentations. To install OSM in your home directory for you own use, type:
        python setup.py install –-home=$HOME/
        
        The components of the OSM library will be installed, depending on your architecture, in $HOME/lib/python or $HOME/lib64/python, while the osm.py executable will be installed in $HOME/bin/.
        
        You can also install OSM as root for all the users, in that case type:
        sudo python setup.py install
