Details:

Hello,

 I found that octave display function cannot show the most of the data type.
 As example:

 /octave:13> display 'pluto';
 error: display: not defined for class "char"
 error: called from:
 error:
 C:\Octave\Octave3.4.2_gcc4.5.2\share\octave\3.4.2\m\general\display.m at
 line 37, column 5
 octave:13> display (10)
 error: display: not defined for class "double"
 error: called from:
 error:
 C:\Octave\Octave3.4.2_gcc4.5.2\share\octave\3.4.2\m\general\display.m at
 line 37, column 5
 /

 the same in matlab behave "correctly".
 />> display 'pluto'
 pluto
 >> display (10)

 ans =

    10/

It happens with GNU Octave Version 3.4.2, Octave3.4.2_gcc4.5.2 , running on
intel core 2duo  address@hidden, 4G ram, win xp pro, sp3, ver 2002, 32 bit (I
suppose). 

Thanks, Loris.
