Quantlet: fittail
Description: transforms the location and scale parameters of a GP distribution from a fit to exceedances to a tail fit.

Usage: {mu, sigma} = fittail (gamma, t, sigmas, k, n)
Input:
gamma scalar, shape parameter
t scalar, truncation point
sigmas scalar, scale parameter of exceedances
n integer, total sample size
k integer, number of exceedances
Output:
mu scalar, transformed location parameter
sigma scalar, transformed scale parameter
