<p>Note that when Octave is started from an executable script, the built-in
function <code class="code">argv</code> returns a cell array containing the command line
arguments passed to the executable Octave script, not the arguments
passed to the Octave interpreter on the &lsquo;<samp class="samp">#!</samp>&rsquo; line of the script.
For example, the following program will reproduce the command line that
was used to execute the script, not &lsquo;<samp class="samp">-qf</samp>&rsquo;.
</p>
<div class="example">
<div class="group"><pre class="example-preformatted">#! /bin/octave -qf
printf (&quot;%s&quot;, program_name ());
arg_list = argv ();
for i = 1:nargin
  printf (&quot; %s&quot;, arg_list{i});
endfor
printf (&quot;\n&quot;);
</pre></div></div>
