Re: An octave for windows tutorial

[abarto]

The idea of this document was a roadmap for building my distro (so I don't have 
to start from 
scratch every time). I think the README.Windows it's ok and I wouldn't touch it.

This roadmap is more related to the INSTALL.Windows document that comes with 
octave-forge 
(I borrowed a lot from it), but it's much more explicit (specially in the 
gnuplot section).

I don't want to show the file to the world until I'm sure it has no critical 
errors. That's why I want 
to post it here first. When all the corrections are done, I'll publish it and 
then everyone will be 
free to use it, change it, translate it, or whatever.

I think I'll post an incomplete version (it's almost done anyway), so you'll 
understand what I'm 
trying to do.
