    _______________________________________________________

Details:

I just downloaded and installed Octave for the first time on a mac.
I have a Japanese keyboard with a "¥" to the left of the delete. This key
does not work properly in the command window of the GUI.

If pressed it moves the insertion to the beginning of the command line. From
there I can not move back to the end of the command line.
(Arrow keys do not work either. Perhaps this is normal?)

I cannot type a backslash or a a pipe, etc.

I was unable to find any reference to this problem in the wiki or the previous
bug reports.
