[Octave-patch-tracker] [patch #9633] Add test for correct exit status behaviour

[Rik]

Update of patch #9633 (project octave):

                  Status:                    None => Need Info

Follow-up Comment #3:

@Mike: Testing for the exit status seems like a useful behavior.  However, I'd
rather avoid a shell script (which can be different between different Unix
flavors and certainly different on Windows).  I wonder if the 4 tests can be
re-written to occur within Octave by using the system() call?

For example, I re-wrote the third test (non-zero exit status) as


[st,out] = system ("./run-octave -f --eval 'exit(2)'")
st = 2
out = 


What do you think?
