Someone who has access to a system where > there is a problem will have to debug it. I've started a binary search to find out when octave broke, but I need some help. Apparently the breakage happened somewhere between 2.1.63 and 2.1.69. Unfortunately I haven't found the tarballs on-line, and I'm a little bit lost regarding octave's CVS branches. I've cheked out ss-2-1-67 and will report that, but the process is tedious and long, so any guidance will be most welcome (particular dates to try, or the old tarballs). tks -- pica
