Follow-up Comment #5, bug #39889 (project octave):
One more octave feature I hadn't noticed ...
I could check matlab does not support running files with no file extension (at
leat using "run"). Thus, for matlab compatibility your example should run
~/myscript.m (and maybe warn the user that ~/myscript.m was run, and that he
can use source to run the desired file)
If no directory is provided e.g.,
run ("myscript")
run myscript.m if it exists in the path else run myscript if it exists in the
path
This preserves the ability to run files with no file extension in most of the
cases without breaking ml compatibility.
