I don't think that you are using Qtoctave the correct way.
I very seldom use the prompt window. What you should be doing is starting an edit window, and typing all your  work into the "note pad like" interface. At this point you can save it to a file, or just run it right from the text window by pressing the black computer screen icon.

All my students are windows types and they like yhe qtoctave interface.


try the following sequence:

VIEW
MODE
DOCK

This is in the windows OS version and is not in the Ubuntu version.



 Try it once more.
