GNU Octave is a high-level language, primarily intended for numerical
computations. It provides a convenient command line interface for solving
linear and nonlinear problems numerically, and for performing other numerical
experiments using a language that is mostly compatible with Matlab. It may
also be used as a batch-oriented language.
These optional dependencies will be used if found:
AMD, CAMD, COLAMD, CCOLAMD, CHOLMOD, UMFPACK, CXSparse, glpk,
arpack, qrupdate, qhull, HDF5, fltk, ftgl, and GraphicsMagick
ImageMagick (part of Slackware) will be used instead of GraphicsMagick by
default. To override this, use:
WITH_MAGICK=GraphicsMagick ./octave.SlackBuild
