[Scilab-users] A possible bug with format(width)

[stephane.mottelet at utc.fr]

  Scilab 6.0.1 does it as follows:
   
   --> format(4); u=123.456
    u  = 
    
      1.0  D+02
   
  The display of Scilab 5.5.2 does not respect the format length  
either,  because " 123." has length 5 (blank sign +123 + dot)

  As MacOSX, Linux is not affected, this will help to solve this bug:

  Scilab 6.0.2 (Feb 14 2019, 10:11:47)

  --> OS_VERSION

   ans  =

   Linux 4.15.0-48-generic

  --> FORMAT(4); U=123.456

   u  = 

     1.D+02

   

  Are you in "v" format? This result looks like to be in "e" one, and  
anyway it does not comply with the required width.
On win7 with 5.5.2 we get in "v" format:
-->format(4); u=123.456
 u  =
   123. 
=> it does not switch to "e" format.
