[Octave-bug-tracker] [bug #60453] Input function on windows fails to trim carriage return character when running in batch mode

[anonymous]

Follow-up Comment #3, bug #60453 (project octave):

I updated to 6.2.0, and saw the same behavior. The batch file now contains

@echo off
C:\Octave\Octave-6.2.0\octave.vbs --eval batchTest('%~dp0')
cmd /c

for the updated version (removal of "--force-gui" was required for it to
work).

The Octave script batchTest.m excerpt is unchanged from below, including the
output with the carriage return coming from the input function.

Tasos' good suggestion of using 'strtrim' still works, but this was a subtle
error that was hard to catch, and I'm not sure I ever would have figured it
out without his help.
