I have found a slight variation on what Baird mentioned, though it
involves less typing at startup.  Add the following line

addpath (genpath('/usr/share/octave/site/api-v22/m/octave2.9-forge/'),
"-end");

to the file ``~/.octaverc''.  The second argument ensures that the paths
are added after the current set of paths.  I found that if I did not
specify this, the paths would be prepended to the Path variable (or list
or whatever it is); then when I tried to call the plot command the
`drawnow' function from octave-forge stirred up trouble.

Note that I had to create the file ``~/.octaverc'' and that whenever I
start octave I get over 120 copies of a warning message.

warning: autoload: `' is not an absolute file name

I don't know precisely what's causing this or how to correct it, but I
can see the commands despite their expressed concerns.
