Re: [OctDev] Install package under Windows

[Greg <ewa...@gm...>]

Yeah, I saw the check-boxes available for the VS2010, but I don't want to
reinstall the whole Octave software to add a single package I didn't needed
when I first did the installation. That's why I wanted to manually install
more packages.

And for the MinGW version, I found no packages. The "pkg list" command says
there is no packages installed. Maybe I'm again doing something wrong?

Thanks !
