Bug#884033: scilab-celestlab

[Paul Bignier]

Hello,

Indeed the changes from Scilab 5 to 6 include non-heterogeneous strings and quotes around the save(...) input parameters; so simply replacing
  execstr(sprintf('save(pathmacros+filesep()+''%s.bin'',%s)',vars(i),vars(i)));
by 
  execstr(sprintf('save(pathmacros+filesep()+''%s.bin’’,'’%s'')',vars(i),vars(i)));
should do it.

Regards,
Paul
