[Octave-bug-tracker] [bug #38653] matlab ... continuation sequence not supported

[Rik]

Follow-up Comment #5, bug #38653 (project octave):

It seems like Matlab is very obviously and explicitly turning everything after
the continuation marker '...' into a comment.  We probably should do the
same.

In the mean time, it is easy to workaround this and get the same behavior in
Octave by using '... %' so that the line is a continuation and the comment
character '%' causes Octave's parser to ignore the rest of the line.


S = 1 + 2 ... %anything after the ... is ignored
       - 2;
