2. Setup ResInsight to find the Octave executable.

ResInsight 1.4.0 and later

1. ResInsight 1.4.0 is delivered with support for Octave 4.0.0 which can be downloaded here: Octave-4.0.0
2. Launch ResInsight.exe, open Edit->Preferences and enter the path to the Octave command line interpreter executable, usually 'C:\Your\Path\To\Octave-x.x.x\bin\octave-cli.exe'

ResInsight 1.3.2-dev and earlier

1. Earlier versions of ResInsight for Windows had precompiled support for Octave 3.6.1 for VS2010 and can be downloaded here: Octave-3.6.1 for VS 2010

• Download an additional library file and copy it into Octave lib folder, typically c:/Octave-3.6.1/lib/dirent.lib
