How to know if Octave (GUI) is busy/running

Question

It is a simple issue, but unfortunately I couldn't find the answer in any previous question. Currently, I am using Octave-6.4.0 (GUI) for simulating simple models, although I am more used to work with Matlab. Therefore, I found it really useful that Matlab shows the state "Ready" or "Busy" in the bottom-left bar. Is there something similar in Octave to check if the model has finished or if it is still running? Thanks in advance!

Answer 1

The markers >> indicating that you can write a new command will only appear after the current simulation is finished.

From Tasos Papastylianou 's comment:

More usefully, you might consider printing logs every now and then during your simulation, to keep track of progress (every million iterations, for example, or something along those lines)
