Re: change the initial presenting octave line starter

[Judd Storrs]

You should be able to change the prompt to anything you want using the
PS1 function. For example

PS1("octave:\#>")

http://www.gnu.org/software/octave/doc/interpreter/Customizing-the-Prompt.html

On linux you can set that inside an .octaverc file in your home
directory. I'm not sure where that file is named or where it goes on
windows.
