Hi everyone,
a recent change in octave core (in pkg.m and news.m) will allows users
to read the NEWS file of packages from the octave prompt too. For
example, news("signal") would show the NEWS from the signal package
instead of the core NEWS.
For the new functionality to happen, the NEWS file needs to be in the
root of the package. However, some of the packages in octave-forge
have this file in doc/. As such, I'm moving them.
Other less common files that pkg recognizes during package
installation are ONEWS (for when the NEWS file becomes too long) and
ChangeLog (a much more detailed description of changes on each
release. Something like the output of svn log).
