Perhaps you grabbed one of the them and > that's why you thought it was part of Octave? First, I have to say both Keven Straight and you are awesome. As for why I thought rref was part of octave, that's probably because the Debian package then included it, which could mean several things; there could've been a separate package for added functions, or it could've been an octave variant, or a Debian developer applied patch. I'll compile both goctave and matcompat tomorrow--both look great (unless that's not required with matcompat, I'm going to sleep soon). I didn't see anything like rref in contrib area on the octave ftp site, but I'll have another look. I spent quite a bit of time lucklessly searching the web and octave website, so it's good to see octave is thriving. Someone even mentioned an egroups forum. This is over the top, and it doesn't even begin to describe all the added features I've discovered here, not to mention the people. *Thanks!* JR millerjr at u dot washington dot edu ------------------------------------------------------------- Octave is freely available under the terms of the GNU GPL.
