[Octave-bug-tracker] [bug #57463] History should be stored at platform specific location

[John W. Eaton]

Update of bug #57463 (project octave):

                  Status:                   Fixed => In Progress            
             Open/Closed:                  Closed => Open

Follow-up Comment #14:

I generally agree with the idea that implementation and maintenance effort
should be a consideration, it seems simple enough to add something like


if (isempty (history ()))
  warning ("attempting to recover history from ~/.octave_hist file used by
previous versions of Octave");
  history ("-r", "~/.octave_hist");
endif


to the version-specific startup file.
