 Sherpa: Regression Test Procedures
Sherpa normally sends much of its output to stdout (e.g., the "fit" command by default displays the fit statistic at the end of each iteration, and the best-fit values of the thawed parameters upon completion; and, the options to the "show" command print out much information, and so on).
Sherpa is an interactive application; users type in commands at the command line, and Sherpa functions are executed in response.
Sherpa commands can also be stored in a text file or "script", and the script can be run as a batch job.

The C-23 Sherpa is the Army National Guard’s answer to missions requiring an aircraft that is capable of faster, higher-altitude and longer-distance coverage than helicopters.
The C-26A is the civilian equivalent of the Fairchild Metro III with the C-26B being equivalent to the Fairchild Metro 23.
The Sherpa is an all-freight version of the Shorts 330 regional airliner with a 5 ft-6 inch square cabin section over an unimpeded hold length of 29 ft. Through-loading is provided via a large forward freight door, and via a full width, hydraullically operated rear ramp door with removable roller conveyors.
