[Dieter Kadelka]

Follow-up Comment #5, bug #56097 (project octave):

Thanks,
I tried your suggestions. Here is the result:
>> dbstop help
ans =  48
>> help sin
stopped in /usr/local/share/octave/5.1.0/m/help/help.m at line 48
48:   if (nargin == 0)
debug> dbnext
stopped in /usr/local/share/octave/5.1.0/m/help/help.m at line 72
72:   elseif (nargin == 1 && ischar (name))
debug>
stopped in /usr/local/share/octave/5.1.0/m/help/help.m at line 74
74:     if (strcmp (name, "--list"))
debug>
stopped in /usr/local/share/octave/5.1.0/m/help/help.m at line 84
84:     if (strcmp (name, "."))
debug>
stopped in /usr/local/share/octave/5.1.0/m/help/help.m at line 95
95:     [text, format] = get_help_text (name);
debug>
stopped in /usr/local/share/octave/5.1.0/m/help/help.m at line 98
98:     switch (lower (format))
debug>
stopped in /usr/local/share/octave/5.1.0/m/help/help.m at line 102
102:         [text, status] = __makeinfo__ (text, "plain text");
debug>

Now octave hangs.
