Re: Running octave from bash script

[Thorsten Meyer]

If octave is on your search path and your script is in the current
directory and its called cronscript.m you can simply say
    octave cronscript.m
within your bash script.

I'm trying to run an octave script from a scheduled bash script under Cygwin (which is running entirely separate from my version of Octave). I have the GNU Octave 2.1.50 build which I downloaded from octave.sf.net. Can anybody help or direct me to some literature on the internet that addresses this topic? I want to be able to automatically run an octave script at the same time every day.

Thanks!
