Details:

The prompt strings PS2 and PS4 are empty in the GUI.  Whereas, in the CLI they
are "> " and "+ ", respectively.

Is there a particular reason for this?

Here is a test script which is attached to this report


echo on
a = 1
b = 2
c = 3


when run in the CLI I get


a =  1
+ b = 2
b =  2
+ c = 3
c =  3
+ 


The first echo of "a = 1" is missing because of related bug #56068.

When executed in the GUI I get


a =  1
b = 2
b =  2
c = 3
c =  3



Checking PS4 shows that it is empty


double (PS4())
ans = [](0x0)
