<p>Note that when Octave is started from an executable script, the built-in
function <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 ‘<samp>#!</samp>’ line of the script.
For example, the following program will reproduce the command line that
was used to execute the script, not ‘<samp>-qf</samp>’.
</p>
<div class="example">
<pre class="example">#! /bin/octave -qf
printf ("%s", program_name ());
arg_list = argv ();
for i = 1:nargin
printf (" %s", arg_list{i});
endfor
printf ("\n");
