How to run "start.m" on Octave

[marinezaku]

Hi ! (^ ^)

In order to run ROMSTOOLS, I'm using Cygwin-X and Octave instead of Linux and MATLAB.

I tried to run "start.m" of ROMSTOOLS at Octave on Cygwin-X,
but I got the following error messages.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------
>> start
parse error near line 62 of file /home/Neptune/Roms_tools/Run/start.m

syntax error

>>> !uname -m > .mysystem
-----------------------------------------------------------------------

The line 62 is the following.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------
!uname -m > .mysystem
-----------------------------------------------------------------------

Does anybody know how to run "start.m" normally ?
