+octave-forge packages on windows
+You should follow the README for the binary octave bundle, for example
+http://wiki.octave.org/Octave_for_Windows#Octave-3.6.4-mingw_.2B_octaveforge_pkgs
+The additional forge-pkgs (ex. Octave3.6.4_gcc4.6.2_pkgs_20130331.7z) contains the already compiled
+packages for the specific (Octave-3.6.4) version.
+Normally windows users can't just install octave forge packages with
+  pkg install package
+or
+  pkg install -forge package
+because their system lacks a build system with autotools, make, c++ compiler etc.
