Details:

I just installed Octave 4.0.0 in Win XP.  Then loaded the instrument package. 
Followed the examples but got this:


>> if (exist("serial") == 3)
    disp("Serial: Supported")
else
    disp("Serial: Unsupported")
endif
Serial: Unsupported

>> s1 = serial("COM2", 115200)
warning: the 'serial' function is not yet implemented in Octave

Please read `http://www.octave.org/missing.html' to learn how you can
contribute missing functionality.

>> pkg list

Package Name        | Version | Installation directory
--------------------+---------+-----------------------
instrument-control  |   0.2.2 | ...\instrument-control-0.2.2
>>


It seems like this should work.  ???
