Re: Distributed Octave 2.1.51 setup?

[JD Cole]

Hi Zine,
   Glad to hear your interested in the project. I imagine you checked 
the web page, http://www.transientresearch.com/d-octave/. The thing that 
I have to stress right now is that the parallel section stuff is NOT 
mature. As my disclaimer states, the currently available code is 
proof-of-concept. That said, I'm happy to give you, or your sysadmin a 
hand installing the stuff. (There are some very basic instructions right 
now on the web-page.) As I was just telling someone else, I had put off 
work for distrib-octave for the last four months but I'm getting back 
into it now.
   But.......there is limited functionality to distribute scripts, and 
you using it and giving me feedback will only make it mature faster. So 
take a peek at the web-page and get back to me.

Best,
JD
