Galois test



Is there a routine for checking wether a number field extension is Galois? I couldn´t find one, but probably there is some "naive" way to do that like:

nffactor(nfinit(P),P)

and check wether all the factors have degree one or not. Is there a better (or faster) way? (like no using nfinit which takes too long if the polynomial is big enough).
Cheers,

Ariel
