Re: gnuplot bug in Windows release of Octave?

[Tatsuro MATSUOKA]

Hi,

Perhaps Michael reply true answer.
This is just a comment.

>From the message this seems not to be gnuplot bug.
I suspect that this comes 'white space' problem in installed path name.

Please try to make a folder like 'c:\programs' and install the octave to that 
folder.

Anyway if you want use mkoctfile in the future, you can not use the mkoctfile 
if you install your
octave in the 'C:\program Files', which inculdes white space.


ps. purpose of mkoctfile
The solving ODE or nolinear eq. write eq. by c++ and use mkoctfile the eq. to 
be solved to *.oct file.
The solving speed will be about 5-20 times (dependeing on the function coding) 
faster than that by *.m
file function.

Details for the using mkoctfile, please see the octave manual.

About how to use it on the MSVC octave, please see my web.

Note for mkoctfile for MSVC-octave 2.9.16
