path

[Joerg Schreiber]

Hi,

how do I set my path for octave correctly? (debian linux)
when I try, following happens:

octave:1> path

LOADPATH contains the following directories:

 /usr/local/share/octave/site-m//


octave:2> path  /usr/local/share/octave
error: `usr' undefined near line 2 column 8
error: evaluating binary operator `/' near line 2, column 7
error: evaluating binary operator `/' near line 2, column 11
error: evaluating binary operator `/' near line 2, column 17
error: evaluating binary operator `/' near line 2, column 23
octave:2>


after:

octave:2> path '/home/jsch'

no error-message is displayed, my xterm deletes the display and  shows 
only:

octave:2>

in the first line.

the same after:

octave:2> path /home/jsch



regards, Jörg
