I tried to make the plugin compatible with both the new and the old
version but I am stuck with some strange behavior of Octave which I
don't understand.
According to
http://www.gnu.org/software/octave/NEWS-3.html
a solution could be to rename as "tmrepl3.m" the modified tmrepl.m,
leave the old tmrepl.m unchanged, and write in .octaverc and tm-start.oct:
d=getenv("TEXMACS_PATH");
v3=(exist ("OCTAVE_VERSION") == 5)
if (length(d) > 0)
if v3
addpath([d,"/plugins/octave/octave/tm"],[d,"/plugins/octave/octave/plot"],[d,"/plugins/octave/octave/polynomial"]);
PS1("\\002channel:prompt\\005octave> \\005");
PS2("\\002channel:prompt\\005> \\005");
else
LOADPATH=[[d,"/plugins/octave/octave/tm:"],[d,"/plugins/octave/octave/plot:"],[d,"/plugins/octave/octave/polynomial:"],LOADPATH];
PS1="\\002channel:prompt\\005octave> \\005";
PS2="\\002channel:prompt\\005> \\005";
endif
global TMSTRUCT=0;
global TMCOLORS=["black"; "red"; "magenta"; "orange"; "green"; "blue";];
global TMCOLIDX=6;
if !v3
gset terminal postscript eps enhanced color;
gset size 0.5,0.5;
endif
if v3
tmrepl3
else
tmrepl
endif
endif
This should work, but in practice the "if" clause seems to be not
executed correctly by Octave 3.0 (I get LOADPATH= executed although
v3=1). I don't know what can be done.

Dear Andrea,
If I understand well, you are just proposing to uncomment all references to
gset.
Do you know if there is a way to test the version of octave and execute the code
only for older version. In that way, we remain backward compatible.
Thanks, Joris
