The output of the command is interpreted as html. Because of that,  
it's not that wrong to put

. "$TM_SUPPORT_PATH/lib/html.sh"
htmlHeader "Octave output"

at the start of your command and

htmlFooter

at the end. It's documented in the TextMate Help in section 10.3  
(HTML Output).
	The Help links to http://macromates.com/blog/archives/2005/09/28/ 
html-output-for-commands/ for additional information, but read the  
Help first, probably you won't need the additional information.
	The linked page contains some errors, you have to hit "stop loading"  
in your browser before the page loaded completely, else it will  
forward you to a non-existing local file. Furthermore, not all stuff  
in the sample boxes is escaped correctly, so you'll want to look at  
the html source for the samples :-P

This sounds like a problem of Octave for me :-)

If you have access to all these files, you can convert them yourself  
from the shell with find (to find all your source files) and tr -d  
'\015' (to remove dos line endings). Or some other shell trick.

HTH,
