Re: Installing/configuring MXE-Octave under Windows 7

[David]

Thanks, that worked, at least to the extent that an output file is being created now. But it's only printing the axes, not the function being plotted. Here's the sequence of commands I entered:

>> x = linspace(0,2*pi,1024);

>> y = cos(x);

>> plot(x,y);

>> print -dpng cos.png

See attached file for output. What am I missing?

David.

Yes, I can confirm that it works (under Windows 8, but I expect it to
be the same in W7): install the most recent version of Ghostscript, and
add it to the path before starting Octave (if you are using the batch
file to start it in GUI mode, you can edit it and add a line setting the
extended path).

One more advice: when you install Ghostscript, use a path that does not
contain spaces.
