When creating a new .m file on an rclone share in the Octave GUI, Octave does
not recognize the file and report that the function is undefined. After
restarting Octave, functionality is as expected.

This behavior can be reproduced as:

>> edit rcloneTest.m # With 'disp "test"' as only line
>> rcloneTest
error: 'rcloneTest' undefined near line 1, column 1
>> exit


Then, restart Octave:

>> rcloneTest
test


I am using the Flathub flatpak version of Octave from 5 November 2023. No
other program that I am using shows this behavior, including other flatpaks,
hence I am suspecting it is something Octave specific.

The command line version of the Octave flatpak shows the same behavior,
reproducible as:


flatpak run org.octave.Octave
<< create and edit testRclone.m with an external editor with 'disp "test"' as
only line >>
octave:1> rcloneTest
error: 'rcloneTest' undefined near line 1, column 1
octave:2> exit
<< restart Octave >>
flatpak run org.octave.Octave
octave:1> rcloneTest
test


The rclone version that I am using is:

rclone v1.60.1
- os/version: ubuntu 22.04 (64 bit)
- os/kernel: 6.2.0-39-generic (x86_64)
- os/type: linux
- os/arch: amd64
- go/version: go1.19.3
- go/linking: static
- go/tags: none
