I have no Matlab installed, and I'm not sure if we can use information
on implementation details from its inbuilt help for coding.

I thought you could implement a class, as documented in current stable
Octave, for options objects. I didn't think it's necessary that the
implementation details are similar to what Matlab does. But I seem to
be missing something.

You seem to talk of 'optim.options.Fmincon' as being a function call
which is not associated to a variable. If so, this syntax is unknown
to me and I can't help, sorry. Or is 'optim' an ordinary structure
variable and its subfield 'options.Fmincon' an options object? But
then you couldn't access it whithin called functions without making
'optim' global...
