Not a very scientific test, but there was a readme.txt file in my local folder. (first two lines are empty, then some Enlish text).
So I typed > readme error: `readme' undefined near line 2 column 1 > a = 1; > b = 2; > readme error: `readme' undefined near line 4 column 1 The line number seem to be correlated to where I am in the Octave CLI and it doesn't refer to any particular line number of the readme file. I think the error message should be 'Can't find readme.m'.

I remember this problem in the development series. What version are you running? If you're running 3.2, then it would be nice if you could come up with a simple example that triggers this behaviour.
