This page offers you to import some programs for Matlab libraries for softwares like:

• Matlab (version 5 or higher) provided by MathWorks (http://www.mathworks.com).
• GNU Octave (freeware, manual at http://dv.go.dlr.de/pdinfo_dv/octave.html).
• MIDEVA Matlab clone is also available from MathTools (30 days evaluation version at http://www.mathtools.com) essentially for Windows plaforms.
• Scilab a wonderfull Matlab clone, fast, free, with GUI and objects (figure, uicontrol, uimenu) as well as a Simulink clone. Not 100% Matlab compatible.
  

You may also use KMatPlot, an external viewer replacing GNUPlot for Octave, or default Scilab plot windows. Nice.

Note : For .tar.gz files.
Use on Unix systems <tt>gunzip [file.gz] </tt>, then <tt>tar xf [file.tar]</tt>, or with Winzip on PC's, rename files from <tt>.tar.gz</tt> to <tt>.tgz</tt>.
