[Octave-bug-tracker] [bug #62417] 'format' errors on names with spaces when calling with function form

[John W. Eaton]

Follow-up Comment #15, bug #62417 (project octave):

Nothing indicates specifically that a command style function call has
happened.  The parser simply converts things that look like


format short e


to the equivalent index expression 


format ('short', 'e')


Then the usual argument processing and dispatching happens when that
expression is evaluated.
