[Octave-bug-tracker] [bug #56097] Freezing of command window after help sin or doc win

[Dieter Kadelka]

Follow-up Comment #10, bug #56097 (project octave):

Hello Rik,
with the original version of __makeinfo__.m
I generated /home/xxx/octtmp
Then with

octave-5.1.0 -f --gui
tempdir ()
setenv ("TMPDIR", tilde_expand ("~/octtmp"))
tempdir ()
help sin

>> tempdir()
ans = /tmp/
>> setenv ("TMPDIR", tilde_expand ("~/octtmp"))
>> tempdir()
ans = /home/xxx/octtmp/
>> help sin

with the result that octave hangs. In ~/octtmp is 

-rw------- 1 xxx users 3189  9. Apr 00:06 octave-help-mQYpLb
which is not removed.
