[Octave-bug-tracker] [bug #51707] textscan seems to skip chunks of text

[HJW]

Follow-up Comment #2, bug #51707 (project octave):

I'm getting 1109 lines (apparently a line end is not read on line 1129)

This is one of the lines (line 579, first is original):
'"features.EventEdit.components.EventEditNav.details":
"Details"'
'"features.EventEdit.components.EventEd.details":
"Details",'

Using Matlab, I made a list for lines in this file that go wrong. The
following list is [line number, length in Matlab, length in Octave]. To
account for the missing LF on line 1129, I've added an empty cell at the end.

[260 144 141;428 324 317;481 54 47;526 56 48;579 64 59;606 540 539;664 285
283;698 88 85;740 205 200;788 40 33;885 17 16;1129 11 31;1131 31 39;1132 39
9;1133 9 153;1134 153 7;1136 7 7;1137 7 0]

I can see no system in what bit sequence causes characters to drop or what
characters are truncated. I will try uploading a .mat file with the textscan
result.
