I've done some quick tests (I don't really use the pfstools octave bindings myself) and stumbled across the following error message: error: built-in function cannot be indexed with { error: evaluating assignment expression near line 36, column 9 Line 36 looks like this (without indentation): command = argv{1}; Any ideas about this specific error? Is there any documentation about the transition from 2.1 to 3.0? I had a very quick look at the documentation but was unable to find anything useful for me.
