If you are new to Octave there is one thing you should know. Octave is very 
close to Matlab but some commands are not available by default. In some cases 
because they are in developing, in other because license problems. These 
commands are available in Octave-Forge.

One of them is 'ginput':

http://octave.sourceforge.net/index/f/ginput.html

To get them you should install Octave-Forge. It's available for the most 
important distributions. If not, you have to compile yourself, it's quite 
easy. You can find it in Debian and (K)Ubuntu repositories, for example.

It seems that Octave-Forge makes Octave more Matlab compatible.

Here:

http://octave.sourceforge.net/index/index.html

you can find information about all the Octave and Octave-Forge commands.
