[Scilab-users] Strange list error

[Stefan Du Rietz]

Hello Paul,
after trying like a maniac ;-) I finally managed to reproduce it!

The error shows up only when you run the command from the command 
window after a pause in the attached function testlisterror.sci.

-->testlisterror("pnonfast","nonfast")
-1->args(1) = null()
args(1) = null()
                  !--error 44
Wrong argument #2.

Without the pause it works OK.

Regards
Stefan
