;;; Commentary:

;; This package provides emacs support for octave.  It defines a major
;; mode for editing octave code and contains code for interacting with
;; an inferior octave process using comint.

;; See the documentation of `octave-mode' and `run-octave' for further
;; information on usage and customization.

;;; Code:
(require 'comint)

;;; For emacs < 24.3.
