You want to use the aload.m and asave.m functions. There are actually two
sets of them. The first (which is older and simpler) is somewhere on 

        ftp://ftp.tsc.uvigo.es/pub/octave/

and the second is, with a lot of other stuff I can recommend, in

        ftp://ftp.ci.tuwien.ac.at/pub/octave/octave-ci.tar.gz
