This is a little off topic since you are talking about Octave without Cygwin,
but I have been working on an Octave GUI for the past year or so. I only get
about an hour or two a week to work on it, but am slowly making progress. It
requires Cygwin + Xwindows + various GTK packages from cygwin-ports (for
Windows), but also runs on OSX and Linux. I have a rudimentary editor with
Octave syntax highlighting implemented with the GtkSourceView widget. For
the gnome people out there, it is the same widget used for gedit. My next
step is to integrate the source editor with the Octave debugging
underpinnings. You can see a screenshot of the UI portion at
http://swenmac.homeip.net:8080/OctaveUI.png
The panels on the left are implemented with the widgets used in Gimp, such
that they can be tabbed together, detached completely, or docked in various
orders.
I have a friend who is setting up a Subversion repository and Trac wiki for
me. Once I have that done and a little more debugging, I will post a link to
the sources to the list.
I do have one Octave under MingW question. Is there any big advantage to
running Octave under MingW rather than just with Cygwin?
The UI looks pretty familiar. I like it.
The reason to use MingW instead of cygwin is that you don't need to
install the full cygwin packages (which has been mentioned as intimidating
before). You can just make a normal-looking windows installer for it, and
it can run as any other windows program.
