Re: [OctDev] waitbar function

[Quentin S. <qsp...@ie...>]

Hello,

Here's my fix to the waitbar function. If you can figure out the 
configure stuff, go ahead and put it into octave-forge. The problem was 
some escape characters that weren't being cleared and it seems xterm 
reacts to this differently than the KDE and GNOME terminals.

cheers,
Quentin
