>>clear all ; %this closes octave when called at the beginning of m file

[Ugalde, Jose [FWI]]

Bug report for Octave 3.0.3 configured for i686-pc-msdosmsvc

Description:
-----------

The command clear all or clear -all close Octave instantly. I am using
Octave 3.0.3 on Windows which was downloaded from Octave Forge. This was
not a problem when i was using version 3.0.1.

Repeat-By:
---------

I open Octave from the desktop shortcut. 
I cd to the path of a .m file. 
The first line of the m file is clear all;close all;fclose('all'); clc;

I call the m file. 
Octave instantly closes with no error.

or, I open Octave from the desktop shortcut, type clear all, and octave
closes.
