bug running ARNASA m files

Dear Sir,

I downloaded and tried to run  an application called "ARMASA", free from 
Matlab_Central.  This application was developed by Dr. Piet Broersen.  It is a
timeseries/signal processing application and has been around and running in
Matlab for a long time.  I encountered several things that I consider bugs:

1. Octave does not reconize the variable ASAcontrol as a data structure.  Why not?

2. Octave will not process compound .m file statements such as 
if ..... & ......
  .....
  .....
end

3. Octave does not process multiple .m file  statements on the same line such as
.....;         ........;  ......;

ARMASA is a very sophiscated application and is very well written in my opinion.
I think the ARMASA is a very good benchmark to test how compatible Octave
is with Matlab .m files.

Will you download ARMASA and try to run it with Octave?   Then you can see
the errors that I am talking about.  I would be very blessed to be able to run
this application using Octave.  Matlab is too expensive.  I know that I have a
personal interest here but I say again that ARMASA is a good bencematk to
see how well Octave peocesses Matlab .m files.

I am Octave using version 3.2.4
