Re: Variables

[Mike B.]

Dear All,

Referring the the bug on viewing variables inside a function (please see 
below), is there an easy way to install the Octave development version (where 
the bug has been fixed) on Debian squeeze?. The current `testing' version 
(3.2.3-1) contains the bug.

Thanks,
Mike.
