Initial import of the GAP package AutPGrp 1.1 into the NetBSD packages
collection as math/gp-autpgrp. AutPGrp is a GAP 4 package for computing automorphism groups of p-groups. In the AutPGrp package we introduce a new function to compute the automorphism group of a finite p-group. The underlying algorithm is a refinement of the methods described in O'Brien (1995). In particular, this implementation is more efficient in both time and space requirements and hence has a wider range of applications than the ANU pq method. Our package is written in GAP code and it makes use of a number of methods from the GAP library such as the MeatAxe for matrix groups and permutation group functions.
