This is the Debian GNU/Linux prepacked version of the octave-epstk functions. They were written by Stefan Mueller and announced on the octave-help mailing list. They provide a powerful set of graphics functions to create two-dimensional graphs in encapsulated postscript directly from GNU Octave (and Matlab, for that matter). This package was put together by Dirk Eddelbuettel from the sources at http://programmierer.freepage.de/dalles/epstk.html http://www.epstk.de Changes are documented in /usr/share/doc/octave-epstk/changelog.Debian. The package was renamed for conformance with other Octave package, and to highligh the fact that Octave is used to `drive' the graphs.
