Hi Marius
Unfortunaly, I don't know the first thing about autoconf, autotools or
whatever they are called. So I just created a Makefile by hand that
helped me during development. So to install you have to copy the .oct
and .m files to a directory of your choice. Or you can just leave them
where ever they are and that that directory to your path.
I know this isn't optimal (it's a first release), so I'll look into
providing a standard ./configure, make, make install installation.

Why not migrate the whole package to octave-forge, probably under the
extras directory due to the narrow scope of the package... Then you can
use the existing configuration/make structure of octave-forge to deal
with it. You'll need a configure.add and Makeconf.add file to indentify
if fann is installed, and if you have any m-files then you might need to
deal with the issues of why to do with the installation of these in the
case that fann is not present. There are several ways of dealing with
that, either replace the dot-m files with *.m.in filenames and
conditionally copy them to *.m if fann is installed (there are examples
of this main/general/Makefile), or you can alter the m-files so that
they check the installation and exit with an error if fann is not
installed...
Cheers
David
