[Octave-bug-tracker] [bug #52488] genvarname substitutes underscore for invalid characters in string

[Philip Nienhuis]

Update of bug #52488 (project octave):

                 Release:                   4.2.1 => dev                    
        Operating System:               GNU/Linux => Any

Follow-up Comment #5:

genvarname is an .m-file function so it should be easy to add some option in
the input, maybe as an optional third argument. 
Could be something like "" (= do like Matlab) or (default?) "_" (= replace
invalid chars by underscores).

I have no time for it now but after perusing genvarname.m this looks like a
nice little project for a novice contributor.

Release => dev
OS => any
