My mistake. I thought it was. But symbolic is, isn't it ?
The reason why Octave coding style is requested for packages is
twofold: (a) it shall allow to easily move a function from a package
into Octave core or into another package, (b) it shall be easier to
contribute to community maintained packages for all of us, which is
easier when all packages follow a corporate style.
Reason (a) is probably irrelevant for several packages. If only small functions
are of interest, the effort would be small to convert them into Octave style.
Reason (b) is really important because I'd like to see more contributions to
packages happening and a common style helps with that in the long run. It
simplifies to accept contributions if you don't have to reformat the patches.
Sure, I would also like to see more contributions happening ;-)
And you guys are really going to discourage someone who is willing to
contribute to an *unmaintained* package just because he wants to use %
instead of # and "end" instead of "endif", "endfor", etc. ?
