Original committer seems not to be able to make account here.

I will write instead of him.

Here's a simple script that crashes Octave GUI all the time.


clear; close all; clc

x = [1; 2; 3; 4];
y = x;

plot(x, y, 'rx', 'MarkerSize', 10);
fprintf('Program paused. Press enter to continue.n');
pause;


The steps to reproduce is:

1. cd the to directory that contains the script.
2. Run the script.
3. When you see "Program paused. Press enter to continue", press CTRL-C twice.

3. Now, you should see "Press Control-C again to abort.".
4. Press CTRL-C again. Then Octave GUI crashes.
