From: pand9613 at mail dot usyd dot edu dot au To: Carlo de Falco Cc: Octave Date: Fri, 24 Jan 2003 19:29:38 +1100 I am using octave with the cygwin emulator on windows 98 (work PC so no choice of OS unfortunately). I am a big novice so i don't really know much more. I think the octave version is 2.1.36. While i'm on the subject does anyone know where i can find information on the cygwin terminal because i installed octave from a precompiled automatic installation for windows and hence know nothing about it.
