debug mode for MPITB is working on parallelknoppix

[Michael Creel]

For your parallel coding pleasure, the ParallelKnoppix CD now has debug 
mode working for MPITB for Octave. MPITB is a set of binding functions 
that let octave scripts and functions use message passing interface 
(MPI) functions for parallel computing. The debug mode makes writing 
parallel code a lot easier since you can see what the slave nodes are doing.

A screenshot of what this looks like:

In this shot, the xterm on the left is running on the master node, and 
the one on the right is running on a slave node. Together they produce 
the results you seen in the gnuplot window. The P-KPX CD contains all 
the code used for this example and a number of others, too.
