Hello,

I have to interchange programs with collegues working under
MatLab. This implies that I have to use the single quote as string
delimiter. I enclose a simple .m file where MatLab's editor smart
indent feature works OK, but octave-mode chokes on the seventh
line. It considers a brace is opened; this doesn't occur if I use a
double quote instead. Would it be possible to have the single and
double quote treated the same way ?

Regards

Pascal

The latest code in Emacs's trunk (slated for Emacs-24) handles your
example correctly.  Please try it (it also includes a complete rewrite
of the indentation and navigation code).
