Uh... I shamefully admit that the meaningful whitespace in Matlab
doesn't bother me so much.... :-)

As to more serious stuff, I am testing 4.0.0-rc2 in Windows, currently
win7 then I'll try win8.
I hope that octave-maintainers is the right place to signal oddities,
otherwise please be patient and redirect me.
1) Italian translation issue in the command history panel: the tooltip
has a misprint, "Fare doppio click su un comando per trasferirlo nel
termianle", should be ".... nel terminale"
2) the GUI doesn't react to CTRL+C (I have almost broken the "C" key
while trying, during a loooong loop....); similar problems are described
here http://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?37672
3) strange behaviour of the "pause" command with no parameter. The first
"pause" works (it waits until I press "enter"), the second doesn't (and
returns immediately), the third works, the forth doesn't... and so on;
without knowing anything about octave internal working, I'd suppose that
the CR+LF given by the "enter" key is acting as a double entry, so that
the CR makes the first "pause" to return, while the LF remains buffered,
and is eaten by the second "pause", which returns as soon as it is issued.
Thank you very much.
Best regards
Giorgio
