Thank you for your comment, Bill.
I have tried David's build from "David's Octave webpages".
There are 3 points.
[1] I have checked calculation speed using my complicated script.
Octave 2.1.50 (standalone) 8.6220 sec
Octave 2.1.72 (cygwin) 17.969 sec
Octave 2.9.4 (minGW) 7.9534 sec
I am satisfied with the speed of the minGW version.
[2] Is "Portable Octave" on portable hard disk possible using minGW
version? Apart from the speed issue, "Portable Octave" would have
advantage for some people including me, I think.
[3] I have noticed the following behavior on the version 2.9.4. This
behavior is important for matlab compatibility, I think.
Octave version 2.9.4 on minGW, MS-windows
--------------------
octave.exe:1> '\n'
ans = \n
octave.exe:2> '\r'
ans = \r
octave.exe:3> '\r\n'
ans = \r\n
octave.exe:4> "\n"
ans =
octave.exe:5> "\r"
ans =
octave.exe:6> "\r\n"
ans =
octave.exe:7>
