Re: wxOctave???

Hi Kelly

What do you mean by GUI?

If you mean an integrated development environment (IDE), have a look
at octave-workshop
http://www.math.mcgill.ca/loisel/octave-workshop/
which has the same aims but is currently unmaintained. Maybe you can take it up?

If you mean matlab compatible graphics (i.e. with graphics objects and
handles) including widgets (called uiobjects in matlab) -- this is now
being worked on and we are in need of help
