Subject: | How to set path in ~/.octaverc? (Re: 2.1.55 problems) |
Date: | Thu, 25 Mar 2004 11:55:47 -0500 |
Hi Per, I'll write to help-octave from now on.Apparently problem was in my ~/.octaverc file. I had LOADPATH and EXEC_PATH set to look in 2.1.50 directories. Everything worked fine when I was running 2.1.50. My search path was very 2.1.50 specific.
So how do I set octave's search path properly in ~/.octaverc? I simply want to add "~/octave/m//" and "~/octave/oct/" to the default search path.

Octave is simply not seeing it.what does 'path' give you?The darwinports installation of octave seemed to go alright, though it took an extraordinary amount of time (over two hours). Do you think I should just uninstall octave and try again? (This time I'll reboot my iMac before I do the installation (to free up as much RAM as possible).)Nah, voodoo won't help ;-) /PerPS. I'd appreciate if you'd direct the questions to the help-octave or DarwinPorts list (depending on the nature of the problem) than directly to me, I follow both lists. That would i) allow others to chip in knowledge and ii) make solutions publicly known right away.
