[Octave-bug-tracker] [bug #35038] Test fail in toplev.cc (MinGW)

[Rik]

Follow-up Comment #1, bug #35038 (project octave):

Could you try running these two lines at an ordinary interpreter prompt?


 cmd = ls_command ()
 [status, output] = system (cmd)


ls_command() is supposed to return a valid shell command even for MinGW.  In
fact, looking at ls_command.m it should return


ls_command = "cmd /C dir /D";


Maybe the problem is that the actual command for MinGW should just be "dir
/D"?
