[Octave-bug-tracker] [bug #31080] User scripts or functions created during a session are not found

[Philip Nienhuis]

Follow-up Comment #17, bug #31080 (project octave):

Sorry, I need to be a bit more exact:

do:
"start Octave"
(or "start octave-cli")
.... from that same cmd32 window.

FYI, "start octave" will detach an octave session from that command window.
While you're fiddling in Octave, from that cmd32 window you can run "touch".

============
Anyway I've tried this myself with Octave-3.9.0+ and I get the same as the OP.
Screen shot of session attached, just to show.
Like the OP I tried it on an NTFS drive (X: in my case)
"touch"ing the file (after Octave command #7-2) doesn't help.

BTW I'm intrigued by the error msg:

octave:7> type test2.m
error: type: couldn't open '' for reading


i.e. Octave seems to forget the file name although it was entered on the
command line.
