Here is another interesting question. For the installed examples (with chmod fixed) octave gives an error message that does not occur for the build-tree case (with chmod fixed). Here is the error message. Failed tests: x20c.m, x24c.m, x25c.m, x26c.m Can you fix this? Alan __________________________ Alan W.
