error with "end"

[Adam Balgach]

why does octave continually give me an error with the code...

"b = reshape(x,s(n+1:end));"
                       ^
specifically octave tells me that
"parse error near lin 16 of file..."

its has to do with "n+1:end" anyone know why this doesnt work? im trying to
port all my matlab code to octave, and i need this function to be working by
tommrow morning. thanks.

(the code comes from Matlabs "shiftdim.m"...
 if (n > 0)
    n = rem(n-1,ndims(x))+1;
    if (isequal(siz(1:n),ones(1,n)))
      s = [siz ones(1,n+2-length(siz))];
      b = reshape(x,s(n+1:end));
                                    ^

thanks.
