<html> <head> <title>GNU Octave</title> <style TYPE="text/css"> <!-- body { } --> </style> </head> <body> <h2>Welcome</h2> <p> Thank you for installing GNU Octave! </p> <p> Octave 4.0 is a major release with many new features including a graphical user interface and support for classdef object-oriented programming. </p> <p> A full list of changes can be found in the Release Notes from the News menu. </p> <h2>BLAS Library Selection</h2> <p> During the installation a default BLAS library was selected. The installer contains 2 BLAS implementations, the <a href="http://www.netlib.org/blas/">NetLib reference BLAS</a> and <a href="http://www.openblas.net/">OpenBLAS</a>. </p> <p> The choice of library may be changed after installation by copying either librefblas.dll or libopenblas.dll to the file libblas.dll in the bin folder of the Octave installation. </p> <h2>Included Octave Forge Packages</h2> <p> A number of Octave-Forge packages have been included with Octave, however they must be installed in order to use them. </p> <p> To install: <ul> <li>Start Octave and then open the build_packages.m file found in the src folder where Octave was installed.</li> <li>Run the script build_packages.m to build and install the packages.</li> </ul> Installation is a one-time procedure. After installation packages must still be loaded in order to use them with the <tt>pkg load PACKAGENAME</tt> command. </p> <p> Other packages are available from <a href="http://octave.sourceforge.net/">Octave-Forge</a>. </p> <h2>Issues</h2> Please report any problems with Octave on the <a href="http://octave.org/bugs.html">Octave website</a>. </body> </html>
