Update of bug #68112 (group octave):

                  Status:                    None => Confirmed

Follow-up Comment #1:

Can confirm here w. dev Octave (12) and an older Windows 11 dev version from
late December, on Windows 10 Pro (ESU).
And with 11.1.0 on another Win0 box.

Killing 'less' in Task Manager makes Octave listen again.
After a second attempt to reproduce the bug it took a bit of fiddling in Task
manager to get the Octave processes visible again (to be able to kill 'less');
also seems a bit weird.

Note:
Last time I tried / used the pager must have been years ago so I didn't hit
this (but it's good to know about this issue, e.g., for testing release
candidates. Completely overlooked to try the pager).
TBH I never paid attention to the terminal settings, I even had the "legacy
terminal" setting active since several years, didn't note any issues with
Octave on Win10.
