[Octave-bug-tracker] [bug #60692] Octave hangs when GUI editor file is saved during shutdown

[Philip Nienhuis]

Follow-up Comment #5, bug #60692 (project octave):

Just tried on Fedora and Mageia: same results.
On Mageia & Windows I checked the file size: indeed empty.

Another thing: this issue only occurs with .m files. With other file types (no
.m extension) the bug doesn't show up.

Could the parser be involved? AFAICR that usually checks the file's syntax
before trying to save, so that'll work only on .m files. Could it be invoked
in a way the GUI doesn't expect?

I see the file dialog only in case of a not-yet-existing file, at a time the
file extension isn't known yet.
I can reproduce the bug only with pre-existing *.m* files.

Maybe add JWE to the cc list?
