Re: difficulty installing running Octave from CYGWIN |

Hello Paul,
Thanks for your reply.
I tried startxwin.sh as well as startx (as recommended in your e-mail to
Andy Yip) & receive the same message -
bash: startxwin.sh: command not found
I am wondering whether I have CYGWIN installed properly. Under this
directory there are the following folders - bin, etc, home, lib, temp, usr
& the files cygwin.bat & cygwin.ico. When I click on the cygwin.bat file I
get a DOS window with the command line - address@hidden ~
Does this sound right? Presuming I am doing things right so far (which may
be a big presumption) can you suggest anything to check whether the
programs are installed properly? CYGWIn is on my C drive and Octave on my D
drive - does this make a difference?
Any assistance is appreciated,
regards
Bob

Hello,
I tried to run Octave after installing CYGWIN. I ran the Cygwin.bat file
after installing the associated files from the internet. After typing in
"startwin.sh" I received the message - "command not found". I am wanting
to run Octave in Windows XP but didn't get very far when trying to follow
the instructions I downloaded.
Make that "startxwin.sh"
See the thread a few days ago started by Andy Yip.
