I totally understand that and I would help make handle classes work in
octave but I have no useful knowledge for that as I never learned any
C programming. I don't have any need for the inputParser utility,
specially not in a MatLab compatible mode. I'm just doing it for the
fun and would like to see it on octave-core one day because I thought
it would be something useful since almost all functions need a way to
check arguments. As such, whatever you decide the API should be is
fine with me.
