I've installed Octave 4.2.0 on Ubuntu 16.04:
wget ftp:// tar xf octave-4.2.0.tar.gz rm octave-4.2.0.tar.gz cd octave-4.2.0/ ./configure make -j8 sudo make install However there is a graphical bug in my Octave terminal:
The rows in terminal are stupidly small to see the present code.
How can I get rid of this bug?

I fixed it by changing the font from Courier to another type. In my case, I changed it to Andale Mono. I have Octave version 4.2.2, and my Ubuntu is 16.04 LTS.
