Parameters to executable Octave programs

[Matthias Roessler]

Octave-Version: 1.1.1


After reading the FAQ, the manual and the mailing-list archives I
haven't found a solution to this problem:


As described in section "1.3 Executable Octave Programs" I made my
octave programs executable. How do I pass parameters from the command
line to my program? I would like to do something like this:



#!/local/octave/bin/octave -qf

temperature = $1;
pressure    = $2;
epsilon     = $3;

result = Start_my_calculation_with(temperature, pressure, epsilon);

save resultfile result;



My current solution is to write a sh-wrapper. Any other ideas?

Matthias
