[Octave-bug-tracker] [bug #31976] Cannot print in emf form in fltk printing (MinGW)

[Tatsuro MATSUOKA]

Follow-up Comment #22, bug #31976 (project octave):

I have misled.

Not from msys prompt by ./run-octave


>>system('cmd')
E:usrTatsuprogramOctavetest2>type fltk_test.fig | C:Programsfig2devfig2dev.exe
-L emf 2> NUL > fltk_test.emf

works well.

Therefore problem does not lie on cygwin version fig2dev.

Seeing the command in detail fig2dev command is not quoted by "" and both 
(back slash) and / (slash) are used as path separator.

I have tested three cases.v.exe -L emf 2> NUL > fltk_test.emf


cat fltk_test.fig | C:Programsfig2dev/fig2dev.exe -L emf 2> NUL
 > fltk_test.emf

gives empty emf file.



cat fltk_test.fig | C:Programsfig2devfig2dev.exe -L emf 2> NUL
 > fltk_test.emf

gives correct emf file.


cat fltk_test.fig | C:Programsfig2dev/fig2dev.exe -L emf 2> NUL
 > fltk_test.emf

gives correct emf file.

At the top of the command line path like C:Programsfig2dev/fig2dev.exe seems
to be acceptable.
But it seems not to be accepted in the pipe command, which is command after
"|" .

Perhaps the solution to be C:Programsfig2dev/fig2dev.exe given as
"C:Programsfig2dev/fig2dev.exe" or C:Programsfig2devfig2dev.exe.

I do not know where is to be changed to complete this.
Please give me advise.
