Python interface to octave

[Johann Cohen-Tanugi]

hi Sven-Erik,
my 'easy' answer is :
1) If you absolutely want octave as the software doing the job, use the 
python module commands to execute it from a python shell.
2) If you are preferentially working in a python environment, why not 
give SciPy a try? Depending on what you exactly need to do, it may give 
you an easy way out.
m2c,
Johann
