[Octave-bug-tracker] [bug #50640] display function not passing arguments to overloaded version of function

[Rik]

Follow-up Comment #29, bug #50640 (project octave):

For a reasonable reference on disp/display see
http://www.mathworks.com/help/matlab/matlab_oop/displaying-objects-in-the-command-window.html.

This seems to indicate that classes might want to override disp rather than
display function.  It is display that takes care of printing out the variable
name and '='.  It may also be taking care of the extra newline for format
compact/loose.
