Problem fixed.

Thank you for reporting it! :D

@Jose: You know you can edit the help of these functions yourself? Let
me know if you do not know and need some help to ge the hands on it.
If we do this, then you can send us the respective correction. In that
way you will be helping GNU Octave to get better!
At the same time you will getting the hands of how to write
documentation and functions for Octave, with some luck we will have
you(!) among the usual contributors in no time.

Cheers
