[Octave-bug-tracker] [bug #47539] textscan misinterprets escape sequences in single quoted strings

[Lars Kindermann]

Follow-up Comment #8, bug #47539 (project octave):

Thanks, the two patches fix the bug for me.

(while *buffer = ' ' did not help on my system)

Note that the file I submitted ends with a 1Ah (Ctrl-Z) as EOF marker. The old
textscan from 4.0 also returns it as the final element of f, so it is not a
new bug. I am not sure what the "correct" behavior would be. Probably a
trailing EOF should indeed be ignored by textscan. How does MATLAB behave?
