[Octave-bug-tracker] [bug #44860] "hold on" in single-line is not parsed correctly

[Rik]

Update of bug #44860 (project octave):

                Severity:              3 - Normal => 2 - Minor              
                Priority:              5 - Normal => 1 - Later

Follow-up Comment #4:

Another way to get it to parse is to treat hold as a real function and use
parentheses.


holding = ishold(); if(0 == holding) hold ("on"); end


Although Octave may be incompatible, there are several workarounds and it is
not clear that this is even desirable syntax as having everything on one line
is a confusing coding style.  We can keep the bug, but I'm going to lower the
priority.
