Invoking my "edit.m" using "edit fn" instead of "edit('fn')"

[colincampbell]

Dear Octave community:

     How do I invoke my "edit.m" function (which takes one argument) using:

          edit fn

     instead of

          edit('fn')

     as I can in Matlab, and as Octave allows with certain functions, e.g.:
     "hold on" and "type fn"?

     I remember reading about this somewhere, but a subsequent search of
     the Octave manual and Octave FAQ and these archives has not been
     successful for me.  Hence this post.  Thank you and best regards,

Colin Campbell
