scoping issue, revisited

[Eric S. Carlson]

For anyone who has programs like the following that will not run in octave
2.9.9+ because of scoping issues:

function main
  f5 = @(x) g(x,4);
  xzero = fzero(f5,1)

function y=g(x,a)
  y=a-x.^2;


this simple mod to create a script from the program will work fine
1;
function main
  f5 = @(x) g(x,4);
  xzero = fzero(f5,1)
end

function y=g(x,a)
  y=a-x.^2;
end
main
clear main g

This is a modification procedure that is very easy to automate. Overall, the
issue is quite important because TMW pushes this as the proper way to send
extra params to functions passed to function functions.
