By the way, "help rat" says "See also: format" and format() has "rat" as a possible option. > I'm filing against the info docs, which I use, but I presume it applies > to octave3.0-doc too. Yes, this would also apply to octave3.0-doc and octave3.0-htmldoc, since all forms of documentation are generated from the same TeXinfo sources. I am not sure this is a bug, though. If you really think it is, please reply to this message with further arguments and I will forward the bug report upstream. -- Rafael -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
