Re: windows ver. of Octave

[David Bateman]

I'd suggest compiling as i386 and supplying several version of the altas
dll's, installing
the right one only. Don't know how to do this under windows however.

Alternatively, replace octave.exe with a script that determines the platform
type at run
time and selects the correct altas dll.
