Modifying to suit Octave's syntax looks straight forward.

I use this a lot, very handy, but since the ultimate source is the ML file
exchange, you should maybe ask the author to email a copy to the list or upload
to CTAN if Octave is going to use it.

I'm not familiar with how CTAN works. Will we be able to submit patches to
CTAN?
For example, we should add endif, endfor, endwhile, ... to the list of keywords.
Ben
Not really, it's just a package archive. The only advantage of CTAN would be
that the author could upload it themselves if they were interested, for a wider
audience, then we could download and modify as we wished. It would also be
automatically distributed with various TeX systems this way as well. This would
be extra work though.
It might be better to get a copy from the author, and then maybe host a
modified version on Octave-Forgeor something, I just thought CTAN was a neutral
way to sidestep any legal issues.
