I just finished cross building mxe-octave with GUI enabled. However, I am unable to figure out how to launch Octave with GUI. When I open the file octave.exe directly, it opens the CLI version of Octave.

I used the Control Panel to add the directory C:\Users\ani\Desktop\octave\bin to the Path environment variable. So typing echo %path% in cmd displays the following:

C:\Program Files (x86)\Intel\iCLS Client\;C:\Program Files\Intel\iCLS Client\;C:

Are there any additional steps needed to launch the gui?

Are you positive the GUI has been compiled in? Do you have a octave.exe and octave-cli.exe executables? What Windows version are you testing it on?
