... well, with the one catch that I still have to modify my program each run instead of just listing the files and piping them into my program. But still, much easier than the way I was doing it.

Yes, I can just use glob(), but only if I had known about it! :D (IOW: Thanks).

I'm running in Linux. Linux usually lets you list files and pass them into programs, or pass the output of one program into another, etc. Is there a way to do that for Octave files, too?

In other words, I want to program it so I can do something like this

ls <select-specific-files> | makeGraph.m

where makeGraph.m would then execute in Octave and process each file? Can I do that in Octave? How?

Perhaps I misunderstood what you really want, but could you just use glob()?

Like :

fl = glob("*Beta=0195*.csv");
nfiles = rows(fl);

for ii = 1:nfiles

   u1 = csvread(fl{ii});

   ...etc...

endfor
