This is probably something really simple, but I don't get it. I downloaded a copy of Octave and extracted it to octave-2.1.73-sol10-sparc-local. Now what do I do with it? I chmod'ed it to 777 and tried running it which just gave me an endless stream of errors. Here's the beginning of the file if that helps.
Code:
-bash-3.00$ more octave-2.1.73-sol10-sparc-local

OK, now I'm stuck again. I installed the package but apparently I need to run octave-config in order to set up some environment variables. But they're not getting set:
Code:
-bash-3.00$ cd /usr/local/bin
-bash-3.00$ ls
mkoctfile octave-2.1.73 octave-config
mkoctfile-2.1.73 octave-bug octave-config-2.1.73
octave octave-bug-2.1.73
-bash-3.00$ sh octave-config
usage: octave-config [options]
-bash-3.00$ more octave-config
#! /bin/sh -
#
# octave-config - reports some configuration values for Octave

Hello there. I would like to know how to use shc (the generic shell script compiler ) with octave scripts. With sh scripts it works fine (because it automatically recognizes the interpreter - here bash ). But when use with octave scripts like this easy one #! /usr/bin/octave

As I promised in several threads, here are some notes on how I installed several Operating Systems on my laptap. I will give links to the tools that I obtained from various third parties. And I will include the source code for a few scripts that I wrote.
