Subject: | Octave Compatiblity with MatLAB |

Hi,
I work for the Air Force here at Wright-Patterson AFB Dayton, Ohio. The base is a big MatLAB/MathCAD/Mathematica user, as you can imagine. I recently discovered Octave and want to evaluate a copy on my WindowsXP machine. What are the latest compatility issues with, specifically MatLAB? I read the FAQ on Octave/MatLAB compatility. Apparently that hasn't been updated since Feb '98. Anything more recent? With a whole lot of happy MatLAB users around here will they have to do something special in order to "see" Octave files, programs, scripts? Can Octave users "see" MatLAB output? Can graphs generated by both be exchanged without software "encumberances?" If there are "barriers" between the two, that would kill getting Octave adopted on a widespread scale. Basically, would a MatLAB user have to do any more work to receive Octave output?
Also, our base is switching over gradually to VISTA. Does Octave work with VISTA or is it too early yet?
Thanks.
