With Octave, you can create EPS -- Encapsulated Postscript -- files from
your graphs and charts. After creating your files, you need to know how
to view them. You can open the EPS files from your menu system by
opening a graphics viewer. However, for faster viewing, you can use the
Octave command-line interface to open the file from the terminal.

file, including the .eps file extension. For example, type "shotwell
test" to open the "test" EPS file in the Linux app Shotwell.
