Re: imread

[Miquel Cabanas]

what a mess, first cygwin, then the cygwin-incompatible version of
octave, then you want imagemagick...

DISCLAIMER: what follows is my advice, you probably should wait for
other users replies/comments before blindly following it.

My recommendation is that you jump back to cygwin and install everything
from there. That way you will have an integrated set of programs.

For that, remove first everything you have installed so far and start
from scratch by following the simple and excellent installation
instructions by Paul Solderlind,

http://home.tiscalinet.ch/paulsoderlind/Software/Software.html#OctaveInstallation

Make sure you install the octave (2.1.73), one/any/all of the octave
documentation packages, octave-forge (2006.03.17-1), gnuplot (4.0.0-1),
and imagemagick (6.0.4-1) packages (and any other that you want). Also,
emacs/Xemacs, vim, nedit, texmacs could be useful as editors. Indeed,
you can run octave from within emacs/xemacs and texmacs.

Package dependencies will be handled by the program and all required
packages will be automagically installed.
