Follow-up Comment #2:

Thanks for the detailed bug report. The TERM environment variable should be
set to "xterm" if and only if the inherited environment doesn't already have a
TERM set. Does the TERM=dumb value come from the xfce launcher?

By the way, a cleaner way to look at the environment list is


cat /proc/$pid/environ | xargs -0n1 echo | sort


Can you see if your xfce launcher or window manager have TERM=dumb set in
their environment?

If you do


setenv TERM xterm


inside the Octave interpreter does that fix the problems you are seeing?
