It seems to me there must be some other solution since all this seems
to be doing is setting the prompt to something that will be recognized
by Emacs as a prompt. And that is already supposed to be true (the
default is "octave:NN> " and I think octave-inf.el sends commands to
Octave to set it to "octave> ". If that's not working, will someone
please try to debug why it is failing?
