Hi If mkoctfile is used incorrectly, it can fail with a cryptic error message:
octave:1> mkoctfile -c basename: missing operand Try `basename --help' for more information. This can easily be solved by adding the following lines after the option processing (i.e. after the "done") if [ -z "$octfile" ]; then echo $usage_msg 1>&2 exit 1 fi Thanks Kris PS: there seems also a misspelling in the flag processing of -o. It says "-o | -ouput | --output)" ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ EMC VNX: the world's simplest storage, starting under $10K The only unified storage solution that offers unified management Up to 160% more powerful than alternatives and 25% more efficient.
