Hi Juan,

Thanks very much. I've applied your patch with one minor change:

(format "%s" (or var "nil"))

However, is there a better way to receive an elisp nil value in octave?

Sorry to pursue you for more help, but that problem is not limited to
sessions. A very simple demonstration of it is

#+begin_src octave
x = 5
x
#+end_src

#+results:
: /usr/share/octave/packages/3.2

This happens because neither of these two lines of code alter the value
of 'ans' (I presume the value we are seeing is something from octave's
start-up sequence).

Contrast this with

#+begin_src octave
x = 5
x+0
#+end_src

#+results:
: 5.00000000e+00

Any idea of the best way forward?

Dan
