Hi Samuel, et al.
Thanks for the tip, I commented "// clear;" - so this is no longer executed.
First script run still generate the "Invalid buffer." error - and second
run still generate the line 93 error.
This level of debugging is not my strong side. Sorry.
This is really weird. I modified my script so that the first line
executed is "disp("hello1");" ... I never see this message displayed,
only the below error. The only thing that "works" is to close down and
restart Scilab.
P.S. I believe I looked through the changes to 6.0 to ensure that I
wasn't using any functions that cannot work under 6.0, but I might have
failed. Is there a tool which can parse a script and give advice?
Best regards,
Claus
