The default file format for saving is still octave's own ascii format.
Isn't that incompatible anyway? And would there be any way of saving such
special matrices in matlab's binary format without breaking compatibility?
Does octave's display need to be compatible (or is it at the moment?)? How
would you display a diagonal or permutation matrix?
