[Octave-bug-tracker] [bug #49765] Windows CLI version octave tries to write history to C:\

[kire pudsje]

Follow-up Comment #4, bug #49765 (project octave):

And to avoid problems with people using spaces in filenames, obtain the short
dos form of the directory.
Long filenames (>8 characters) without spaces will be kept normal, as to avoid
ugly filenames.


if "%UserProfile: =_space_%" == "%UserProfile%" (
  set HOME=%UserProfile%
) else (
  for %%I in ("%UserProfile%") do set HOME=%%~sI
)


The same trick might be used with OCTAVE_HOME
