<h2 class="chapter">37 Packages</h2>
<p>Since Octave is Free Software users are encouraged to share their
programs amongst each other. To aid this sharing Octave supports the
installation of extra packages. The `Octave-Forge' project is a
community-maintained set of packages that can be downloaded and
installed in Octave. At the time of writing the `Octave-Forge' project
can be found online at <a href="http://octave.sourceforge.net">http://octave.sourceforge.net</a>, but
since the Internet is an ever-changing place this may not be true at
the time of reading. Therefore it is recommended to see the Octave
website for an updated reference.
