    _______________________________________________________

Details:

After launching the GUI, type


x = eye(3); openvar x; y = magic(4); openvar y;


at the command line.  Click in one of the cells of one of the variables and
type "exit" followed by the Enter key.

There is probably a class of commands such as 'quit', 'exit', 'figure', etc.
that should be disallowed in the variable editor.
