Hi David, thanks for replying, just to clarify how I got the error.

First I inserted keyboard command into my script and it stop. Then I
tried to get out of the debug mode. I couldn't type "exit" or "quit",
but I managed to return to octave:> prompt after I hit Ctrl-C

so now it's suppose to be in the octave prompt because I see
octave:>

then when I run the script again it gives me

>> debug> "error: input: reading user-input failed!"
