+\chapter{Stand-alone LP/MIP Solver}
+\label{chaglpsol}
+
+The GLPK package includes the program \verb|glpsol|, which is a
+stand-alone LP/MIP solver. This program can be invoked from the command
+line of from the shell to read LP/MIP problem data in any format
+supported by GLPK, solve the problem, and write the problem solution
+obtained to an output text file.
+
+\subsubsection*{Usage}
