This is an issue I encountered irregularly in the last months but couldn't put a finger on.
However while checking if Dan's textscan fixes for bug #52116 would also fix bug #51707 (it appears they do BTW) I found a (for me) reliable way to reproduce the issue.
Steps:
1. Go to bug #51707
2. Execute steps in L.1-11 of the ommand listing in the original report. For convenience, reproduced here:
Then execute the next command (w/o trailing semicolon):
Note that cell array "data" has 1109 items but the listing ends after the start of the 233th.
Next, trying to display any variable value fails until after restart of Octave:
(Note the lack of ";" after the commands).
Right-clicking the variable in the workspace and selecting "disp(data)" doesn't work either, see above.
It looks like the amount of data exceeds some buffer after which code to display values is wiped or rendered in-executable.
