What happens when switching back and forth between the various tabs just

It doesn't appear to be a redraw issue.
Also, you could close the File Browser, Workspace and
Command History windows, exit and relaunch to see if the missing section
is part of the Command Window or the main window (i.e., does the width
of the visible portion change with window size changes?).
Ah. If I have more than one tab open in the part of the GUI that
normally displays the command, editor, documentation, and variable
editor widgets when Octave starts, the message is truncated. I'm not
sure that this is relevant, but it appears to be truncated to
approximately the width of the GUI tab thing that is used for switching
between the widgets. If only the command window is visible when Octave
starts, then no "switcher tab" is displayed and the message is not
truncated. I wonder if somehow the initial width of the widget is set
to the width of the tab and that is used when the interpreter is
starting and displaying the message. Hmm.
