it is .octaverc
However, I don't use that. I simply wrote a couple of
scripts that take me to a couple of places depending...
cdwork.m
cdanalysis.m
either one has all the cd information to take me to the
right directory.
Because I found, once you're there, it's difficult to go to
a different one. so I parked some in the c;\ also
then it's
>> cd c:\;cdchange;
as an example
the manual I found very difficult since it's set up as
html. but doing a " " search in each index has usually
gotten me to exact spot in two steps.
