           stepit(linemat, ips, ind, dblwrd, MAXSTEP, dbgwrd)
%STEPIT computes next step size in line search algorithm
%  Arguments:
%  LINEMAT:  Row 1 contains step values
%            Row 2 contains slope values
%            Row 3 contains function values
%  IPS:      If 1, previous slope was positive
%  IND:      Termination status
%  DBLWRD:   Vector of length 2:  dblwrd(1) T means step halved
%                                 dblwrd(2) T means step doubled
%  DBGWRD:   Print out details of step
%  MAXSTEP:  maximum size of step
