I am trying to get Octave having separate history files in a per-directory
basis. I did:
export OCTAVE_HISTFILE=./.octave_hist
However, this only works when the file .octave_hist already exists in the
current directory. If it does not, then Octave falls back to ~/.octave_hist
but I would like to have Octave creating the history file for me if it does
not exist.
Is the current behavior a bug or a feature?
