Re: mfilename work around

[gOS]

It isn't an option to switch to Linux due to many factors. This feels like
the whole firefox vs ie... Something doesn't work, blame the OS instead of
the programmers.

Thank you. This code did work for me, and I've found the issue now. I'm
trying to get code to work for both Matlab and Octave. In Matlab you don't
need to declare a function name to use mfilename. This made sense because it
grabbed the filename some how. Apparently I'm going to have to get creative
since mfilename in octave is grabbing something else, something I can't
route around with conditional logic. :/

Thank you again.
