If you are going to use argv{i} in a for-loop it is obvious that
length(argv) is the number of times the for-loop needs to be called,
so there is no special source of knowledge there. For the __nargin__
I'm aware that in 2.1.58, __nargin__ appears as a local variable
(but probably shouldn't), as whos will show... In fact on 2.1.60
I just tried this
% octave -q
octave:1> nargin
ans = 1
octave:2> __nargin__
__nargin__ = 1
octave:3> argv{1}
ans = -q
so it is quite frankly puzzling that your original example didn't
work. I'd suggest using length(argv) as something that is logical
to do, rather than relying on nargin in this case.

David
