loading a binary mat-file

[sven.gross]

Hi,
I'm a student of the University of Stuttgart and a new user of Octave. I want 
to use my old mat-files I wrote with Matlab6.5. in the university at home with 
octave. So I saved them as a binary mat-file in Matlab. Now I tryed to open 
them in Octave with: load -mat-binary filename; and I got the error: load: 
couldn't open input file 'filename'. But it works to save files in Octave with 
the option -mat-binary and to open them in Matlap. Can anybody help me?
And what is the difference between -mat4-binary and -mat-binary?

Sincerly yours Sven Gross
