Have you tried? Can't answer till you do :-). In any case octave become
more compatiable with every release 2.1.57 is the most compatiable, and
the CVS takes this even further. 

Are then any specific Matlab 6.5 features that you really need? The only
specific 6.5 feature that I think has been implemented is anonymous
function handles and that just last week so is only in the CVS.
