    _______________________________________________________

Details:

The inline class in Octave is missing several functions that Matlab provides
for inline class objects.  Given that inline objects are strongly discouraged
in favor of anonymous function handles this isn't a big priority.  However,
the list of functions is


cat
disp
display
exist
horzcat
nargin
nargout
symvar
vertcat


The disp() and display() routines would be nice to implement because currently
Octave prompt does not show much:


f = inline ('sin (x)')
warning: inline is obsolete; use anonymous functions instead
f =

  <class inline>
