How to install, verify and update all Octave packages at once?
octave, package
Solution
It looks as if `pkg update` will update all your installed packages. See the documentation on `pkg` for more details.
I haven't found a way to install all packages, I am doing them one at a time using `pkg install -forge <package_name>`, which is a bit tedious. It is also giving me errors when trying to install `parallel`.
Problem
Today I have installed Octave 3.8 with GUI on my Windows 7 machine. Is there a command that will install all the available Octave packages ? Then I would also like to see a list of all the installed packages, and update them at times. So is there a command that checks for updates of all the installed packages ? Thank you.
