Forget my question. It seems to be working without MEX files. It wasn't
at all difficult. It was just my lack of experience :)

Just in case anyone needs it, so far i have got to do the following to
make it work:

1.- untar WaveLab :)
2.- Edit WavePath.m

In line 23 set path instead of pwd (as WaveLab docs say).

In line 26 change:
PATHNAMESEPARATOR = '\';
to:
PATHNAMESEPARATOR = '\\';

3.- Add source('/path/to/wavelab/WavePath.m'); to ~/.octaverc for a
single-user installation:

echo "source('/path/to/wavelab/WavePath.m');" >> ~/.octaverc


That seems to work to me. Despite that ReadImage doesn't work:

And octave complains:
octave:2> barton = ReadImage("Barton") Reading
/home/josep/temp/WaveLab802/Datasets/barton.raw
It is an array of size [ 512, 512]
error: type: `barton.txt' undefined
error: evaluating if command near line 77, column 3
error: evaluating if command near line 69, column 6
error: evaluating if command near line 65, column 2
error: called from `ReadImage' in file
`/home/josep/temp/WaveLab802/Datasets/ReadImage.m'
error: evaluating assignment expression near line 2, column 8


Internally (Datasets/ReadImage.m) it tries:

type('/home/josep/temp/WaveLab802/Datasets/barton.txt');

which fails.

The solution: 
a/ comment out that line
b/ or set WLVERBOSE to 'No' inside WavePath.m



I've just noticed there's a wiki. Should I add that there? Any comments?
