Re: Better quadrature routine in octave

[Pedro Gonnet]

Hi David,

Just a technical question: I've been trying to compile the texinfo file
below and texi2[pdf|dvi] fails as follows:

        address@hidden:~/work/octave$ texi2dvi contrib.txi 
        This is pdfTeXk, Version 3.141592-1.40.3 (Web2C 7.5.6)
         file:line:error style messages enabled.
         %&-line parsing enabled.
        entering extended mode
        (./contrib.txi
        ./contrib.txi:56: You can't use `macro parameter character #' in 
horizontal mod
        e.
        l.56                              #
                                            make a local copy of the octave
        ? q

I know close to nothing about texinfo, so any help on how to process
this file into a more readable format is more than welcome!

Cheers and thanks,
Pedro
