No. But it is clear to me now that this is an 'info' problem, since
when I invoke info from the command line, and not Octave, I experience
the same problem. I'm just new to the whole msys+mingw world, so I'm
never quite sure where the source of my problems are. I'll look into
this when I have more time and post my findings here for everyone's
future reference. Thanks anyway.
