Jaroslav, thanks!
This seems to work only with 3.1 though:

-----------------------
#include <iostream>
#include <octave/oct.h>
DEFUN_DLD(provacc, args, nargout,"\
 provacc:  Undocumented private function\
")
{

  octave_value_list retval;
  const NDArray coefs = args(0).array_value ();
  if (!error_state)
    {
      Array<idx_vector> idx(3, idx_vector::colon); idx(0) = 1;
      NDArray w = coefs.index (idx).squeeze ();
      retval(0) = octave_value(w);
    }
  return retval;
}
-----------------------

$ mkoctfile provacc.cc
provacc.cc: In function ‘octave_value_list Fprovacc(const  
octave_value_list&, int)’:
provacc.cc:16: error: ‘colon’ is not a member of ‘idx_vector’
provacc.cc:17: error: conversion from ‘ArrayN<double>’ to non-scalar  
type ‘NDArray’ requested

$ /opt/octave/3.1/bin/mkoctfile provacc.cc
$
-----------------------

is there a way to do this that is compatible with the 3.0 release as  
well?
