You could do this by entering a call to the .m-file in the Octave
startup file, followed by an exit. But I don't think you'd like to do
that, because it would make it harder to get to the Octave prompt.
Another related question, is it possible to feed commands from a
separate program to Octave, i.e. make Octave run a specific .m file.
If you have a running Octave process, and you want it to run a m-file
through inter-process communication, you'll have to make some major
hacking. On the other hand, it's possible to run as many Octave
processes you'd like, so why not just start a new Octave process to run
the m-file.
You can start an Octave process to execute a m-file and then exit when
it's done. Just call:
octave -f aspecificfile.m
On windows, you can copy the Octave link from the start menu and edit
its properties to add the extra arguments.
