[Scilab-users] scilab 6.0 beta, command line history and freezes

[antoine.monmayrant at laas.fr]

Hi everyone,

I think I found a bug (regression) in the current beta and I wonder 
whether it is related to my own setup (os, config, ...) or whether it's 
more general.
Is anyone here routinely using the current beta in command line mode (ie 
"scilab -nw" or "scilab-cli") ?
If yes, did you observe anything weird when navigating the command 
history using the up and down arrows?
For me, it freezes scilab for several minutes and does not echo the 
previous commands properly (observed on several linux 64bits computers), 
see http://bugzilla.scilab.org/show_bug.cgi?id=14535 .

Is anyone experiencing the same issue?
As anyone any clue on how to avoid it for the time being (apart from 
ripping off the up/dow arrows from my keyboard)?

Cheers,

Antoine
