Hello Marco, It surprises me that the octave-gui command window is not considered a proper terminal, as it apparently has many terminal features. I confirm that > system('xterm') works fine. I agree that the issue is not critical, because the Octave manual does not guarantee that > system('bash') will provide a command prompt. However I note that it does work in both Linux builds and the native Windows MXE builds (the MXE builds ship with what seems to be a complete version of MSYS2, including bash). Thanks for your excellent work in maintaining this and several other cygwin packages.
