[Octave-bug-tracker] [bug #40156] support navigation keys in GUI command window

[Mike Miller]

Follow-up Comment #9, bug #40156 (project octave):

@Philip: You said Ctrl-C does interrupt processes on Windows? Can you look at
bug #37672 and comment there on whether that bug affects Windows or not?

@Guillaume: The arrow keys are configurable with readline, for example I
prefer the behavior you describe so I have my up and down arrows mapped to the
readline functions previous-history and next-history. Octave typically
installs its own readline configuration file that maps them to
history-search-backward and history-search-forward. Maybe that configuration
is getting lost or overridden by some other preferences like your ~/.inputrc
file. What OS by the way?
