Here on Win 7 64bit I have: $ uname -a CYGWIN_NT-6.1-WOW64 darkstar 1.7.9(0.237/5/3) 2011-03-29 10:10 i686 Cygwin Cygwin Package Information Package Version Status cygwin 1.7.9-1 OK octave 3.4.0-3 OK gnuplot 4.4.0-1 OK I did rebaseall and I still get the error: octave:1> t = 0:2*pi/100:2*pi; octave:2> plot(t,sin(t)) error: Invalid call to strcat. Correct usage is: -- Function File: strcat (S1, S2, ...) I do have Norton running (not possible to turn off) and I have had some bloda things but rebaseall seems to clear all that I have noticed, but I suppose bloda is not ruled out. This is a new laptop and my current installation may not be as stable as possible yet. Last week I spent an hour tracking down a stray space being added to my path that prevented lapack from being seen. Right now everything, other than octave, seems to be fine and I've spent most of the day at a bash command line banging g++ et all; the system seems stable and fully operational. -- Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
