[Octave-bug-tracker] [bug #42242] Octave does not always execute most recently saved file in an NFS directory

[Jon]

Follow-up Comment #30, bug #42242 (project octave):

I added sync to my mount options for the NFS mounted directory.  I did a
umount and then a mount.

I created a one line script and ran it.  I immediately modified it and ran it
again.  Octave ran the original unmodified script.

In a terminal window, I immediately typed cat scriptname.m and cat displayed
the source code of the modified script.

I ran the script about 20 times after typing cat and Octave was still
displaying output from original script.

I typed clear -f, then immediately ran the script again.  It produced output
from the modified script.  So clear -f likely fixed the problem.
