[Octave-bug-tracker] [bug #38435] delete.m "max recursion depth exceeded" in windows 1.2.0 package

[Philip Nienhuis]

Follow-up Comment #3, bug #38435 (project octave):

Heh... I could (should) have seen that myself (if it wasn't after midnight :-)
)

Fixing that helps a bit.
But then I get:

octave:1> intf = 'com'
intf = com
octave:2> pkg load windows
octave:3> io_xls_testscript

Testing .xls interface com ...

 1. Initialize arrays.

 2. Insert first empty sheet.
Checking requested interface(s):

Adding in a "keyboard and stepping gives:


octave:3> intf = 'com'
intf = com
octave:4> io_xls_testscript
