    _______________________________________________________

Details:

In its current implementation, gco() creates a figure if none exists (through
gcf()), while MATLAB would return []: this is mentioned explicitly in the help
text of the function.

Could the implementation of gco() be changed to:

h = get(get (0, "currentfigure"), "currentobject");
