Charlie, 

Thank you very much for your reply.  I also read this earlier and noticed this package was contributed in 2002 and not updated since then, so I am afraid it has long since been surpassed by both the R and Octave architectures and not been maintained.  

Thus, I guess my search will continue to try to identify a way to access the frequency domain analysis techniques (bode, nyquist, root locus, etc.) from Octave within R, or I may have to access R from within Octave.  I have not really looked at loading R into Octave in Windows just yet, but I guess that is the next thing to be considered.  

Thank you again for your reply and insights.

ROctave appears to be an Omegahat package-- and a rough one at that as it
has not been loaded onto the Omegahat CRAN-style server.  You can find info
at:
