[Scilab-Dev] InvocationTargetException after commit a715ab13a22

[Guillaume Horel]

Thanks for the tip. Actually, I didn't have a SCIHOME directory (~/.scilab
didn't exist). If I launch scilab with
SCIHOME="~/.scilab" scilab
it starts fine, and it saves some configuration files in there. However
even for subsequent invocations, I need to set SCIHOME in the environment,
otherwise scilab doesn't launch, so looks like the SCIHOME variable is
never initialized. I'll check if there was anything in SCIHOME when scilab
didn't crash before commit a715ab13a22.
