A TeX interpreter has been implemented for the FLTK toolkit and will be part of release 3.8.0. The behavior described in this bug report now works correctly. Closing report.

Among the list of MATLAB-supported TeX character sequences there's "\ast" (see http://www.mathworks.com/help/techdoc/ref/text_props.html#String). Octave doesn't recognize that sequence. Example:

This produces "foo * bar" in MATLAB, but "foo \ast bar" in Octave.
