I am running Ubuntu 9.04  and the latest octave that ubuntu knows about:
 
GNU Octave Version 3.0.1
GNU Octave License: GNU General Public License
Operating System: Linux 2.6.28-14-generic #47-Ubuntu SMP Sat Jul 25 00:28:35 UTC 2009 i686


I doesn't seem to know about the function version of save

I wonder if someone would make a new ubuntu version of octave.


PS  I have made up my 100 different files the brute force way  -- 100 scripts!
So I am not stuck.
