[Octave-bug-tracker] [bug #56271] plot function default "linestyle" option when "marker" is specified

[Mike Miller]

Follow-up Comment #8, bug #56271 (project octave):

It's been a stated goal of the project that Octave should be able to run a
user's existing Matlab code and deliver the same expected results. So the
behavior is correct and Octave will continue to interpret the format options
as they are now.

I believe that in this particular case, if the optional arguments to the plot
function can appear inconsistent to a user, then that may be a failure of the
documentation. I believe that we can improve the documentation if necessary to
help explain the format options more clearly.
