My apologies for not providing more complete information.
I'm running on a Windows 2000 laptop and on a Windows XP desktop.
The binary version that I installed was octave-2.1.50a-inst.exe from

I don't know/remember how this version starts octave.
If octave is started from a cygwin shell which lives inside a DOS
window, you can change the font by right-clinking on the title bar and
choose "Properties".
It may start octave using rxvt with a script (from Paul Soderlind at
http://home.tiscalinet.ch/paulsoderlind/Software/Software.html#OctaveRunning)
like this. (Note that quoted lines are *broken*.)

#!/bin/sh
rxvt --keysym.0xFF50 '^a' --keysym.0xFF57 '^e' --keysym.0xFFFF '^f^h'
-fn "Lucida Console-14" -tn linux -title Octave -geometry 80x30 -sl 400
-sr -e octave
#Change the second instance of octave to octave-2.1.xx if you use
version 2.1.xx where xx<=37.
#If you have a large monitor, then you may want to change the font size
from 14 to perhaps 18,
#and the number of columns and lines from 80x30 to perhaps 100x40.
, then you can edit the startup script

and you can see for yourself what to do. :-)
Hope this is what you want.
