Just a small note: for this mailing list we have the convention to bottom
post [1].

This should work as well.  By using the code of embedded.cc you really
invoke the Octave interpreter (like octave-cli does itself).  Therefore you
are allowed to parse and execute any octave code (scripts, functions,
classes, ... ).  Assume your script is `myscript.m` and available on Octaves
load path.  Then calling from C++:

```
octave::feval ("myscript", ovl (), 0);
```

should suffice.

HTH,
