Good point.
I did a quick check. For the most recent Matlab savepath.m writes
pathsep.m. The location is
/Applications/MATLAB_2007b/toolbox/local/pathdef.m
Which means that savepath is not user specific, but is global to all
users (at least on Mac OS X).
This also means that pathdef.m is different for Octave. With octave,
pathdef is built in and returns the "virgin" default, not the last
result saved by "savepath.m".
There are also a few additional path related functions in Matlab that
aren't yet in Octave. For example, "restoredefaultpath" essentially is
equivalent to "path (pathdef)" in Octave.
hmmmm, how much compatibility do we go for?
