As a separated package, with a name like octave-forge-dev or octave-forge-utils. The scripts would be installed in, e.g., /usr/bin and this should simplify things for the developers. > The mkdoc and mktexi scripts are only to build fixed.texi and comms.texi > files, though are usable by other octave-forge packages wanting to have > automatic generation of the documentation in the same manner.

Yes, this is the idea. -- Rafael ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by the 2008 JavaOne(SM) Conference Don't miss this year's exciting event.
