I followed your suggestion, and it works well.
I've also improved oct2mat. The following cases are now properly
handled. blah ( blah1 <NEWLINE> blah2) -> blah ( blah1 ...<NEWLINE>
blah2) And the use of some obsolete functions like t_cdf, is_matrix are
also taken into account.
I was looking into signal and statistics toolbox, and found that
over 30 functions (mostly in statistics) benefit from this change.
Functions in other toolboxes might benefit as well.
Coding styles that are still not properly handled are:
[0,blah()](1:n), [1:10](3:5)
blah()(1:n), (1:10)(3:5)
num2cell(1:n)(3:5), {1,2,3,4,5,6,7}(3:5)
and
a = b = c = d
This concerns the functions
signal/freqz
statistics/distributions/discrete_cdf
Further tests are welcome. You need awk (available on any unix system).
Binaries for win32 are available from here:
http://gnuwin32.sourceforge.net/packages/gawk.htm

1) Include path to oct2mat
addpath $HOME/octave-forge/extra/oct2mat/inst
2) convert Octave/scripts
freetb4matlab $HOME/octave/scripts /tmp/freetb
3) convert Octave-forge
freetb4matlab $HOME/octave-forge /tmp/freetb
