The current working directory needs to be the same place that you saved the file. You can change the working directory with the cd command. Typing PWD will tell you the current working directory. In the new octave GUI you can use the file / folder tree in the upper left to navigate to the file.

Oh, and please keep the mailing list in the email chain.
