[Octave-bug-tracker] [bug #41842] GUI Command Window should show horizontal scroll bar if necessary

[Richard]

Follow-up Comment #3, bug #41842 (project octave):

Linux. The problem can be reproduced in the following way:

1. Maximise Octave GUI window
2 Type long command which fills most of line in command window and run it
3. Resize GUI window to be smaller

The old commands (and output) are now not wrapped, and go off the size of the
screen. You can still select them, but you can't read them without resizing
the window again. 


However, in my view a horizontal scroll bar is preferable anyway for long
lines rather than wrapping in the command window. There is no need to wrap
with a GUI. I wish my terminal emulator did this too, and actually had
infinite width.
