Hi John,
I am working under Windows XP either, and using forge-windows version of
octave 2.1.73. The following is a sequence to change directory.
octave:1> pwd
/octave_files
octave:2> cd \myworks
octave:3> pwd
/cygdrive/c/myworks
octave:4>
Just keying in MSDOS CD command seems to work fine for my case.

Subject: working directory basics
Hi,
Sorry for the basic level of these questions, but somehow the online help
files are not getting me going. I am working in industry and it has been
some time since I was sharp on computers. I want to change the working
directory to where I have some old M files. It seems using cd or chdir that
I can only get up to the install directory for Octave. Am I limited to
this? Also are there restrictions on directory names and such? I am
working under Windows XP.
Thanks,
John Pruyn
