The Flamingo package was developed by Ben Spencer in 2011: https://mistymountain.co.uk/flamingo/ The differences between the current version of the software and the original tar file are: 1) use of python2 instead of python at the top of the autotune script 2) an updated version of the laplace3d example based on the current laplace3d in Practical 3 At some point it might be worth trying out this tool to convert python2 to python3: https://docs.python.org/3/library/2to3.html
