OpenSees & Octave

[megiddo]

Hi, I was wondering if Octave Libraries, classes and methods are used in OpenSees C++ source code for doing matrix operations, Eigen analysis, ...

no .. some people use octave externally to do pre and post processing in lieu of using Matlab.

Hello - I am hoping someone can help me figure out how to call the OpenSees executable and .tcl input file within an Octave script? For matlab, this is done with the following: !openSees FileName.tcl. In Octave, I am able to use the command system("OpenSees.exe") to run the OpenSees executable, but I can only manually source the .tcl file in the Octave command window. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!
