Follow-up Comment #16, bug #53298 (project octave):
Which Octave version, which io package version, which spreadsheet I/O
interface?
If it is "oct", I'd suggest to try the jOpenDocument interface ("jod"), IMO
the best (& fastest) Java-based one for .ods. See the help for xlsopen /
xlsread for more details; there's also an html doc in the io package's doc/
subdir.
The original bug report was about .xlsx files, not .ods.
I only have vague reminiscence about how it got fixed, let alone if I did fix
it or if it got silently fixed by changes in core Octave. I can't find
pertinent csets in the log (http://hg.code.sf.net/p/octave/io).
Furthermore ATM it is unclear if your issue is the same bug; maybe it's a
different issue - .ods I/O using the oct interface hasn't been tested in the
wild quite as much as .xlsx.
I tried your code on windows with dev Octave and io-2.6.3 but there it
immediately stumbled over the "@" character in the file name. After changing
the "@" into a "_" it hit a bug with the zip function ("no files to move").
That's where it ends for the time being as I have no time to look into it
until well after mid-July, sorry.
