Hello all!  
I am new with Lime SDR and Octave. I am currently trying to complete the steps of the LimeSDR Made Simple Part 5 in order to use Octave. The problem is that the instructions included to install octave are unavailable (they lead to a about:blank#blocked page). I installed Octave 4.0.3, included the limesdr and limesp packages in the ~/octave folder and installed them. However, I think I am missing some part in the configuration because when I run the ASK.m file (available in the git repository) I receive the following error:

error: ASK: library open failed: C:\Octave\Octave-4.0.3\lib\octave\packages\limesdr-1.0.0\i686-w64-mingw32-api-v50+\LimeSuite.oct  
error: called from  
ASK at line 59 column 2  
The line is the command LimeInitialize();

I have tried to look for similar issues in the forum but I could not find anything similar. Does anyone know how to solve this issue? Thank you very much for your help!
