Follow-up Comment #1:

Thanks for your report, I can confirm the issue for all but the "-text"
format. Here is a self contained script to reproduce:


fmt = {"-ascii", "-text", "-binary", "-hdf5", "-4", "-6", "-7"};

toto = 10;
for ii = 1:numel (fmt)
  save (fmt{ii}, "toto.mat", "toto")
  try 
    load toto.mat titi
    printf ("Load silently loads nothing for format %s\n", fmt{ii})
  catch
    printf ("Ok for format %s\n", fmt{ii})
  end_try_catch
endfor
