[Octave-bug-tracker] [bug #57924] Comment not treated as a comment when it has unbalanced parentheses or brackets

[anonymous]

Follow-up Comment #2, bug #57924 (project octave):

There's a simpler test case. Type # at the command prompt and then enter. The
prompt changes to looking for more input. Pressing enter causes the comment to
finish and the normal prompt to come back.

The trailing carriage return character is suppressed by the # symbol and the
lexer waits for more input. Entering a carriage return causes the comment to
be completed.

There's no dependence on parentheses or brackets but the multiple line
comments with braces are broken differently like Mike Miller says.
