Of course I know, that there are many other ways, to bypass the problem, but the question is, why does not work the above form.
Well this certainly looks like a bug to me. The cat command can certainly shove data into the pipe faster than the shell can read it. When the pipe fills, the cat command should block until there is room in the pipe. If cat aborts instead, the shell is robbed of the rest of the script.

Hi All,

When I reboot the system, it comes back to 20%.Is this a bug in the system or my settings have gone wrong... (1 Reply)

octave-bug
octave-bug(1) General Commands Manual octave-bug(1)
NAME
octave-bug - report a bug in GNU Octave
SYNOPSIS
octave-bug [-s subject]
DESCRIPTION
octave-bug is a shell script to help the user compose and mail bug reports concerning Octave in a standard format. octave-bug is typically
invoked by the Octave command bug_report which is intended to be called interactively from within Octave. This provides the best way to
submit a bug report for Octave. It creates a template bug report file and starts an editor on that file. The bug report will be sent to
the bug-octave mailing list once the editing has been completed (this assumes of course that your system can use email). However, the user
could also call octave-bug outside of Octave.
Please read the `Bugs' chapter in the Octave manual to find out how to submit a bug report that will enable the Octave maintainers to fix
the problem. If you are unable to use the bug_report command, send your message to the bug-octave mailing list, bug-
octave@bevo.che.wisc.edu.
OPTIONS
-s subject
Specify a subject line for the bug report. Spaces in the subject must be quoted.
ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES
octave-bug uses the environment variables USER, EDITOR, and PAGER which can be used for customization.
VERSION
This document was last revised for Octave version 2.0.16.
