Octave command window showing unreadable text [duplicate]
When I start Octave, on the command window I see this:
However, after I run some commands, I can see they are in history and they do execute. I can see the text if I copy-paste it somewhere.
How can I make the command window text visible?
Solution 1:
I fixed it by changing the font from Courier to another type. In my case, I changed it to Andale Mono. I have Octave version 4.2.2, and my Ubuntu is 16.04 LTS. It is EDIT->Preferences->Terminal->Font.
This is the fixed command window.
This is the past bugged command window.
