Dear Octavians:

When I try to run (in octave) some function files which I previously 
wrote for Matlab, I get the message: "error: can't perform indexing 
operations for <unknown type> type".  I've tried this in normal octave 
and --traditional mode, both with and without an "endfunction" 
statement.  Any idea what's causing this, before I go through a 
time-intensive line-by-line testing?

Cheers,
