The program you seek is called espresso (as in the coffee) and is
available from Berkeley for a nominal distribution fee.  A word of
caution:  it is only for 2-level logic minimization (i.e. for PLAs);
you may want to pursue obtaining a multilevel logic minimizer such as
MIS, also from Berkeley.  Both are written in C and are quite useable,
with good documentation.
