Hi Jordi,
     Fair assumption, yes, I didn't see it in Octave, but didn't check 
Matlab.
     Alright, I'll take some time to check out these functions (from 
Matlab) you mentioned, and see how I can conform to those as well.  Is 
is worth having a function (wrapper) that provides the SPSS like output, 
but using Octave implementations of these Matlab functions?
Cheers,
Kyle
