Just to get the facts right:
When you try to open the file:
- you have "gedit" configured as custom editor
- you click on the open icon in the toolbar
- in the dialog box you navigate to the desired file and select it
- octave crashes
A few more questions:
- is gedit already open (you have selected "restore last session"
This is not gedit related -- I had exactly the same symptoms before I tried gedit.
in the settings)?
- in which state is the internal editor (shown, hidden, ...)?
- does octave crash when you use "edit file_name" instead?
Wow this is interesting
I did edit d.m
and it did not crash.
and now I can use the gui mouse buttons and I can open and close d.m with no crashes.
I then tried to open an old file with the mouse and got a crash
I then did edit d1.m and it works fine with this d1.m file but still not with any old files.
I can access all my old file with the edit command and then they work ok with the mouse clicks!!!!
