Hello
I have installed the new Scilab-5.0.2 binary version under Windows XP,
SP3...
1. It is not possible to print the content of the console by clicking
on the print button, also printsetupbox(), and        toprint() don't
work.
2. Executing script files with the help of the File, Execute... button
don't work if the input function is used in it.
Should I uninstall Scilab-5.0.2, and download it again?  Any clue ?

This is one of the most frequently reported bug (excluding java
graphics problems).

Hello,
1.) I don't understand your answer, since the same simple script file
works under scilab 4.1.2:

// File, Execute ...
disp('TestExec.sce')
x = input(' x = ')
disp(exp(x),' exp(x) = ')

2.) What's about using the print button under scilab-5.0.2 ? Any
clue ?

Regression.

The Scilab <-> Tcl interface has been completely rewritten by the Scilab
team in order to have a cleaner interface. Mixing this change with the big
code reorganization shuffle has lead to a number of bugs and regressions,
including this one with input() and the broken debugger.

No idea. Didn't have a look neither.
