Hello

I was wondering if someone could explain to me the best way fit a curve in
Root.  I have a 1D histrogram with a non-gaussian or non-exponential
distribution ( actually a Breit-Wigner distribution) and need to do a
maximun likelihood fit on the curve.  Could someone please give me a hint
on the easiest way to fit this curve?


				Thanks,
