Follow-up Comment #3, bug #53938 (project octave):

I think we should make it so that calls to ${OCTAVE_HOME}/bin/octave and
${OCTAVE_HOME}/bin/octave-${VERSION} call the octave.bat script instead of the
octave.exe program. The purpose of octave.bat is to replace octave.exe, so I
think it should replace it in all instances.

Inside of Octave, the user should be able to rely on
${OCTAVE_HOME}/bin/octave-${VERSION} being a well-known entry point that can
be called in a useful way regardless of the operating system.

If octave.bat is copied into bin/octave.bat and bin/octave-4.4.0.bat, does it
automatically take precedence over bin/octave.exe and bin/octave-4.4.0.exe?
Then the only change necessary in configure_make would be to drop the exe
extension.
