Eventually those problems will be resolved (there is a lot of effort  
in developing such capabilities for Octave).

However, as David pointed out, you still have the problem of no  
*legal* eigshow.m being available for Octave.

Those who monitor and respond to the inquiries on this mail-list are  
proportionately developers for Octave. It is legally important for the  
developers to avoid being exposed to copyrighted code. Thus it is  
impractical and inappropriate for us to offer any advice regarding the  
illegal use of Mathworks code in Octave.

I respectfully ask that you not make such inquiries here :-(

However, if you have trouble with code of your own (or any code that  
is open-source or non-copyrighted) please make as many inquiries as  
you like! :-)
