I'm still using octave 2.1.46 without octave-forge as installed with Fink in
Dec 2003 as the available version for Mac OS 10.2.8.
I keep getting confused about a number of issues:
Octave vs. octave-forge?
Apparently there's more to it than a number of additional .m files?
Within about 1 year octave went from 2.1.36? to 2.1.53 and therefore version
2.1.46 is already considered old?
CVS installation to get the latest version of octave?
Is there such a thing as "Regular" vs. CVS installation?
Additional difficulties to install octave on Mac, although Nathan was able
to handle it. I used Fink in Dec. 2003 and octave 2.1.46 without
octave-forge is what was installed.
I believe I understand installation from Source vs, Binary installation.
