*** | *** Probably add builders to jwe's buildbot that build the current Octave stable branch with MXE Octave's release branch. | ||
*** Is there a way to trigger daily builds of the mxe builders only if there have been changes in Octave or MXE Octave. | |||

=== GitHub === | |||
* Markus wants to try out using GitHub runners | |||
** https://octave.discourse.group/t/ci-with-github-hosted-runners/1081 | |||
** Try out macOS runners | |||
* Therefore a folder ".github" will be added to the Octave main repo | |||
** Can be removed anytime if it proves as not useful. | |||
* If other services (despite GitHub) are going to be tested, respective files might be added too. | |||

** Issue treatment of escape characters (first interpreted when Xprintf is applied). | |||

*** Octave .oct-config files to manage how double quoted strings are treated | |||
*** Implement convertStringsToChars and solve issue per function basis (Matlab compatible, probably straight forward, but many changes). | |||

=== Classdef === | |||
* Wish to define classdef classes from C++ "nicely" (currently only from m-files comfortable usable). | |||
* This would also help implementing the string class. | |||
