   Lessee ... so I guess the braindead who just follows the  
instructions in http://octave.sourceforge.net/developers.html, will  
bump into the same problem as me when he does:

octave -q --eval \
     "pkg load generate_html; generate_package_html ('package',  
'package-html', 'octave-forge')"

since the package hasn't necessarily been loaded. So what about the commands

   "pkg install package-version.tar.gz; pkg load package; pkg load  
generate_html; generate_package_html ('package', 'package-html',  
'octave-forge')"

? Would this have worked? (no errors here)

   Hth,

   Etienne
