[Octave-bug-tracker] [bug #47258] exit() causes empty line at stdout

[Rik]

Follow-up Comment #10, bug #47258 (project octave):

I think what you were looking for was either program_name() or
program_invocation_name().

It's not perfect, but program_invocation_name is the same as program_name when
I use run-octave, but is a very long full path to the executable when I am
running an installed version of octave.

I don't think these tests need to be a part of the full regression suite. 
Invoking run-octave, as is done to create the plots for the manual, is a slow
processwhich we shouldn't inflict on everyone.

One way forward would be to create a directory under test/ which has all of
the m-files you need to do your testing.  Next, add a new test target to
test/module.mk which runs the scripts in your new directory.  This would be
manual, but you could run 'make my_newline_tests' before each release to
verify nothing has changed.
