[Octave-bug-tracker] [bug #56151] esc should clear command line, edits shouldn't disable history

[Rik]

Follow-up Comment #11, bug #56151 (project octave):

Octave is its own project.  We try to make the interpreter as compatible as
possible so that code developed with either platform can run.  But there isn't
any stated goal or desire to replicate the GUI.

@eflister: You can launch octave with the --traditional option which makes a
few things more Matlab compatible.  That might help with transitioning.

@Torsten: Do the arrow keys work for you *after* you edited a command?  I had
to use Ctrl+p, Ctrl+n at that point.  If it does, maybe you could share some
of your .inputrc file.
