[Octave-bug-tracker] [bug #49779] print /non/existing/dir/file.svg crashes octave

[Pantxo Diribarne]

Follow-up Comment #4, bug #49779 (project octave):

Yes I think Avinoam is right. Since this crash can be triggered by a simple
typo, checking print options early is the right way to go for the time being:
* check the destination directory exists
* check the user has write access to this directory (open a temporary file for
writting there and delete it immediately)
* check the print device is correct: a typo like "-depcs" instead of "-depsc"
also crashes Octave
