Intersting ...
It does not yet seem to work properly though:
freemat:
--> a=[1:10](1:2:end)(2:3)
Error: Unexpected input
Octave:
>> a=[1:10](1:2:end)(2:3)
a =
3 5
BTW freemat now includes parts of Octave into its binary distribution, e.g.
http://freemat.svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/freemat/trunk/FreeMat/toolbox/specfun/%2Boctave/
but it appears freemat is GPLv2 [1] while Octave is GPLv3 are these compatible?
the FAQ at FSF says:
"When we say that GPLv2 and GPLv3 are incompatible, it means there is no legal
way to combine code under GPLv2 with code under GPLv3"
c.
[1] I'm not sure whether it is "GPLv2 only" or "GPLv2 or later":
- the copyright statements in the code are simply like this
% Copyright (c) 2002-2007 Samit Basu 2
% Licensed under the GPL
- the binary distribution does not include any COPYING file
- the file COPYING in the source tree contains version 2 of the GPL
