Update of bug #33155 (project octave):
Status: None => Confirmed
_______________________________________________________
Follow-up Comment #1:
Confirmed on a recent development branch tip (2011/05/14). This is annoying,
but probably won't get fixed immediately. My guess is that it is an
interaction between how your command window is encoding characters (maybe
UTF-8) and how Octave expects them.
For a temporary workaround, try constructing strings using the hex or decimal
value of the special character you are trying to use. For example, the degree
symbol has a decimal value of 176 so the following works:
graphics_toolkit gnuplot
plot (1:10);
str = ["100", char(176), " Celcius is 212", char(176), " Fahrenheit"];
ht = text (2,6,str);
This will only work with gnuplot. The FLTK toolkit won't work even with this
approach.
