The caret syntax error indicator seems to missing in 6.0. Is this a
regression? Its still mentioned in doc/interpreter/basics.txi
In 5.2:
```
octave:1> 1 + (2 + !)
parse error:
syntax error
>>> 1 + (2 + !)
^
```
In 6.0 and 7.0 from git/hg:
```
1 + (2 + !))
error: parse error:
syntax error
```
(tested with today's tip and much older 6.0 stable)
I have a vague sense this was discussed, so apologies if this is a dupe.
thanks,
Colin
