It would be great to use Octave, however there doesn't appear to be a compiler for Octave scripts. One could use liboctave directly, but what I'm thinking about is allowing non-programmers the ability to create processing elements from a Matlab (or Octave) language.<br> <br>-Josh<br><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Mon, Sep 20, 2010 at 3:52 PM, Gibro Vacco <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:gibrovacco@gmail.com">gibrovacco@gmail.com</a>></span> wrote:<br><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex;"> <div> <p>Hi, <br> <br>----- Messaggio originale ----- <br></p><div><div></div><div class="h5">> Just throwing this out there, but is anyone interested in a plugin loader <br>> for Matlab?
