Re: test if octave is running

[Paul Kienzle]

if exist("OCTAVE_VERSION")==5, "octave", else "matlab", end

The alternative is to put the specific stuff in two separate scripts
on different paths, and in .octaverc add the octave script path but
in .matlabrc (or whatever they use) add the matlab script path.
