Hi,

Good work. Also the README files are now up to date.

When Octave support is compiled, a "missing_help" file is generated in th=
e=20
tmp subdir, and contains the names of functions for which man pages could=
n't=20
be found (as generated by api2man.pl). Although some of these functions a=
re=20
Octave specific, others are not; also, plplot_octave does not implement a=
ll=20
API entry points. Currently, "more missing_help" gives:
