<a name="index-installing-Octave"></a>
<p>The procedure for installing Octave from source on a Unix-like system is
described next. Building on other platforms will follow similar
steps. Note that this description applies to Octave releases. Building
the development sources from the Mercurial archive requires additional
steps as described in the development source itself.
