Command line parameters

[Daryl Lee]

I'm fairly new to Octave.  I've figured out how to pass command-line 
arguments to a script, but only if that script is an executable script or 
called from the system command line, a la "$ octave myscript.m arg1 arg2". 
Is there a way to do so from the Octave console?  When I am at the Octave 
prompt and type "myscript arg1 arg2" I get "error: invalid use of script in 
index expression."  I'm using Octave 3.2.4 on a Windows 7 64-bit laptop.

Here is the script that I have so far:
====================
% Display command line

printf('%s; %d arguments\n', program_name(), nargin);
arg_list = argv();
for i = 1:nargin
   printf('%d argument = %s\n', i, arg_list{i});
endfor

printf('\n');
====================
