Hi,
I'm not sure whether this is expected behaviour so I am asking before filing a
bug.
The following work as I expect:
$ octave-cli -q --norc --eval "exit (0)"; echo $?
0
$ octave-cli -q --norc --eval "exit (1)"; echo $?
1
$ octave-cli -q --norc --eval "exit (177)"; echo $?
177
but the ones below look surprising:
$ octave-cli -q --norc --eval "exit (-177)"; echo $?
79
$ octave-cli -q --norc --eval "exit (-1)"; echo $?
0
is this the way it is supposed to work?
