[Octave-bug-tracker] [bug #62552] In-place operator spacing works for 'i' and 'j', but not other variable names

[Markus Mützel]

Follow-up Comment #30, bug #62552 (project octave):

That's pretty long compared to the other paragraphs in the NEWS file. But, I
guess we need to be lengthy if we want to describe it completely and
correctly.

Minor change:

-expression like `a + b +c` will be not be parsed as a command-style
+expression like `a + b +c` will not be parsed as a command-style


As for the behavior of Matlab R2022a:

>> clear all
>> nonexistent_fcn = 1

nonexistent_fcn =

     1

>> nonexistent_fcn -1
Unrecognized function or variable 'nonexistent_fcn'.
 
>> ls = 1

ls =

     1

>> ls -1
'-1' not found.
