Re: enabling immediate output behavior

[Aditya Bhagwat]

Dear Francesco,

Thanks for your help. Even while using disp(a) as you suggested, in the 
Emacs editor's inferior octave process, all output is kept till the last 
function evaluation has been performed, and only then sent to the 
screen. But luckily, the problem is not present when executing octave 
from my (ubuntu) bash terminal.

Regards,

Adi
