           AUXILIARY ROUTINE

           index=cafeparam(env, string, group,options=options)

           env      - The fit environment as defined in
                      cafeenv__define. Contains the parameters.
           param    - The parameter(s) to look for. These can be
                      either:
                        - The absolute parameter number in the
                          current model.
                        - An parameter number range, defined by the
                          first parameter and last parameter,
                          separated with "-".
                        - A string designating the parameter
                          name. The parameter name is usually
                          "model:parname". If this parameter name is
                          not unique in current model all matching
                          parameters tied.
                          Using the parameter name "*" matches all
                          parameters in current group.
                        - Both variants may be given as lists in
                          [...]. This allows to select more than one
                          parameter. The group must be set for each
                          parameters separately:
                          [par1:g1,par2:g2...par_n:g_n].
           group    - The group to use as default.

           Returns index array referring a parameter in
           (*env).parameter. Returns -1 if nothing found.

           options  - String defining options to the parameter
                      which are given by strings in brackets (eg:
                      test[foo;bar]). If not defined the string is
                      empty.
