I have found a slightly outdated wiki page for setting up easy interoperability between Gnuradio and Octave. The wiki page (
http://gnuradio.org/redmine/projects/gnuradio/wiki/Octave#Installing) has an outdated path structure and "
addpath("/home/username/gnuradio/gnuradio-core/src/utils/")" should read as "addpath("/home/username/gnuradio/gr-utils/octave")". Also to note, when this is done, upon starting Octave the following two warning messages are displayed. I'm not sure if this is an issue or not.
warning: function /home/michael/Devel/build/gnuradio/gr-utils/octave/cool.m shadows a core library function
warning: function /home/michael/Devel/build/gnuradio/gr-utils/octave/rainbow.m shadows a core library function
