Getting started with Octave in MS Windows

[Allen.Windhorn]

Can anyone point me to a tutorial in how to run Octave under Windows?

Specifically, I can't figure out how to set the load path for files, or
even to tell it to load a file giving the full path.  Does it use Unix
or Windows file conventions?  If the former, how does it handle the
drive letter?  I'm using the non-Cygwin versinon AFAIK.

Thanks for any help you can give me.

Regards,
Allen
