Emacs  : GNU Emacs 23.1.1 (i486-pc-linux-gnu, GTK+ Version 2.18.3)
  of 2010-03-26 on palmer, modified by Debian
Package: Emacs version 23.1.1

current state:
==============
(setq
  octave-auto-indent nil
  octave-auto-newline nil
  octave-blink-matching-block t
  octave-block-offset 2
  octave-comment-char 35
  octave-continuation-offset 4
  octave-continuation-string "\\"
  octave-send-echo-input t
  octave-send-line-auto-forward t
  octave-send-show-buffer t
  )

Hello,

I have to interchange programs with collegues working under
MatLab. This implies that I have to use the single quote as string
delimiter. I enclose a simple .m file where MatLab's editor smart
indent feature works OK, but octave-mode chokes on the seventh
line. It considers a brace is opened; this doesn't occur if I use a
double quote instead. Would it be possible to have the single and
double quote treated the same way ?

Regards

Pascal

Not easily: one would need to emulate the Octave parser which can
distinguish between single quotes for transposition and string
delimiting.  You should really use matlab-mode for such code.

The latest code in Emacs's trunk (slated for Emacs-24) handles your
example correctly.  Please try it (it also includes a complete rewrite
of the indentation and navigation code).
