Either from Octave's command prompt, or in your ~/.octaverc place the
line
edit editor "mate %s"
where you substitute you favorite editor for "mate".
For more info, type "help edit" at Octave's prompt.
If you'd like an editor that has syntax highlighting for Matlab/Octave
give TextMate a try.
Since TextMate's been brought up...
I recently became maintainer of the matlab support bundle for
TextMate.
One of my top priorities is octave support, so I'd love to see as
many people as possible using it, improving it and discussing it.
If you're interested in helping, please join the google group:
http://groups.google.com/group/matlab-tmbundle
I'm hoping that together we can make this bundle as useful as some
of the really popular ones!
Cheers,
