Yes, I already updated Octave and that one caught me by surprise.  I thought 
gnuplot crashed for a moment.  :-)

However, I sort of like the old behavior in that one could turn a "redraw" 
property off, make all updates, turn visibility back on and then have only one 
redraw.  Is there are related property for this?...  Oh wait, if property 
settings are done inside an M file the figure update isn't done until coming 
back to the prompt.  I guess that will do.  Although, I still like to copy text 
to the command line prompt via mouse a lot...  Just have to use it for a while 
and see what I think.
