Follow-up Comment #5, patch #9633 (project octave):
I guess I find writing portable shell scripts to be tedious to get right (See
https://www.gnu.org/software/autoconf/manual/autoconf-2.64/html_node/Portable-Shell.html).
But, if someone can do it I have no objection.
The tests I was proposing could go in their own .tst file under the test/
directory or within their own directory under the test/ directory so I think
it is easily extensible.
I hadn't been targeting running in existing installations, but it seems like
it wouldn't be that hard to distinguish between run-octave and a regular
octave run.
When using run-octave,
program_invocation_name
ans = /home/rik/wip/Projects_Mine/octave-dev/src/.libs/octave-gui
When using an installed version of Octave
program_invocation_name
ans = /usr/local/libexec/octave/5.1.0/exec/x86_64-pc-linux-gnu/octave-gui
