File Browser bug

[Richard Crozier]

Now, I'm using ( 6762a6d23010+ (classdef) ) so this may not be present 
on default/stable.

When I try to open an m-file in the editor which contains an underscore 
character in the file name, which is not the first character, instead of 
opening the file in the editor, octave attempts to load it as a data 
file, i.e. I get:

>> error: load: failed to read matrix from file 
'/home/richard/octave/test/t_est.m'

in this case t_est.m contains just "disp('hello')"

I get the same behaviour using the context menu open option on the file 
browser, but I can open it fine using the editor open file methods.

Octave also does not return the prompt after displaying the error until 
you hit enter or CTRL+C.

Is this known, already fixed, or should I file a bug report?
