thanks a lot. This was really helpful ...
no problem. also, some people miss this, but there is a build_packages script that is meant to be run right after installing the Windows version. it includes a number of more common packages. It should be in the Octave-4.0.0/src folder. navigate there, run that script (wait a little while). Most will be out of date, so you can then run
>> pkg update
and it will check and update all installed packages.
