Details:
The "&" symbol is valid in Windows (w7_64) for filenames or paths. It seems to
cause a crash with the print command:
plot(0:1,0:1),print("C:/test.eps",'-depsc') %Octave does not crash/close
plot(0:1,0:1),print("C:/V&V/test.eps",'-depsc') % Octave does crash/close
plot(0:1,0:1),print("C:/V&Vtest.eps",'-depsc') % Octave does crash /close
It doesn't seem to tolerate the "&" symbol in the filename or the path. I did
some looking to see if an escape was needed for &, but did not find anything.
This works fine, btw:
addpath("C:/V&V/")
Also, a SAVE AS with the figure window allows a PDF save to a folder including
&.
>> version
ans = 4.2.2
