Hi, I tried to do a 'dir' command on Octave 3.2.0 on Vista, but it crashed (see below). The same thing seems to work on XP. I localized the problem to the strftime call in dir.m, but didn't have the time to dig into it any further. Still being new to Octave, I decided to ask here first before filing a bug report. Is this a known thing, or some stupid mistake on my side?
