A while ago the --no-line-editing option was added to the inferior octave
mode of emacs, to avoid tab completion, see here:

Without readline octave seems to have problems e.g. with plotting using
OpenGL, or with getting terminal size. It would be much easier to simply
disable word completion in an extra readline init file, e.g.
-------
# .inputrc_octave
set disable-completion on
-------
and call this in .octaverc
-------
# .octaverc
...
read_readline_init_file("~/.inputrc_octave") ;
-------
I am sure one can do this even simpler, but it works at least.
