I reinstalled without the spaces. I'm able to run Octave on Win7/64. Plotting works ok, but printing dumps the core. I assume that is because there is no support for printing using the qt backend? Plotting using gnuplot work as well. Printing does not as I don't have ghostscript installed. In any event, what are the plans for committing the qt backend to the developer's sources ?
