why doesn't the octave 3.6.4 for windows make automatically path for package folder? -


why doesn't octave 3.6.4 windows make automatically path package folder?:

i installed octave 3.6.4 on windows xp system , of packages.

'pkg list' operation shows every packages i've installed, package folder not included in path list. (checked use 'path')

so can't use 'fspecial' although have packages in 'share/ocetave/packages/image-2.0.0' folder.

my question body:

why situation happen?? isn't normal setup file make automatically link path? don't want use 'addpath' function.

octave not load packages default, need load them. use pkg load image. can see packages loaded pkg list have asterisk in front of names.

having load packages thing many users coming matlab find strange if compare other languages, such python, perl, or c++, expect them import, use, or #include every libraries available in system default? see octave's faq more details.

if want package loaded automatically default, recommended action add line pkg load image ~/.octaverc file.

finally, have started octave, should have installed octave 3.8.1 instead.
