I would like to change the file octave-workspace from my home directory, simply renaming it to .octave_workspace. How can I manage to make octave recog
octave-workspace
.octave_workspace
That is the purpose of the octave_core_file_name() function.
octave_core_file_name()
Add the following to your .octaverc file:
.octaverc
octave_core_file_name (".octave-workspace")
