[Bug-gsl] Error in documentation of "siman" package

[Jean Gosset]

Hello,

I just noticed a bug in the documentation 
("http://www.gnu.org/software/gsl/manual/gsl-ref_24.html#SEC378";) of 
the "siman" package of "gsl". It has to do with the specification of 
the "gsl_siman_copy_t" function.

Instead of

"This function type should copy the configuration <VAR>dest</VAR> into 
<VAR>source</VAR>."

it should read

"This function type should copy the configuration <VAR>source</VAR> 
into <VAR>dest</VAR>."

in order to be consistent, not only with the natural meaning of 
"source" and "dest", but also with the prototype given at the next line

"void (*gsl_siman_copy_t) (void *source, void *dest)"

and its use in the "gsl_siman_solve" function, where the order of the 
arguments is clearly reversed to the order of the arguments of the 
"memcpy" function.

Thanks in advance for correcting the documentation,
Jean Gosset
