Re: Mkoctfile, need dynamic linking even for compiling a .cc file?

[Henry F. Mollet]

Many thanks. These .oct files are very large!? Probably should rename the
first one to MyHell.oct.
As you explained earlier, even if I had oregonator.m in the same directory,
oregonator.oct would be used. I saw no difference in speed when running
oregegonator.m but I would have to incorporate cputime () into the files
because both are completed so quickly.
