[ROOT] error matrix

I have been fitting TH1 spectral data to a user-defined function. In the 
past I have used the parameter errors for the fit values. For current 
work I find that I need to know the correlation of the errors of 
different paramaters. I understand that for this I must know the values 
of different terms in the error matrix.

How do I extract values from the error matrix after using "fit" for a 
TH1? I see in the reference guide that TMinuit has a member "mnemat"... 
but I am not using TMinuit directly.

Thanks in advance for your help!
