Make 'doc function_name' bring only help for function_name
When I type 'doc functionname', it returns the whole documentation, while http://www.gnu.org/software/octave/doc/interpreter/Getting-Help.html says it should only bring GNU Info browser at the functionname node in the online version of the manual. Thanks!
1 voteThe “doc” function creates broken links for functions that either do not exist or are not parse of Octave core (i.e. in a package).

support upload of .xls files
I tried uploading some Matrix1.xls file, then with
M1=xlsread('Matrix1.xls')
I get:
error: xlsopen.m: file Matrix1.xls not found1 voteHi Victor,
I’ve been playing around with this for a couple of hours and it looks like XLS support in Octave is patchy at best. I am going to keep this idea open, and if it receives more votes, we’ll look into a way to add support for native XLS files.
In the mean time, I recommend saving your spreadsheet in the CSV file format and using the “csv2cell” function.

Make it so you can customize the colors of the gui
I’d like if you added being able to change the color and font of the gui. Thanks!
1 voteYou can change between two fixed color schemes, light and dark, by clicking the “Change Theme” button in the menu. Is this option sufficient? Can you be more specific about what you would want to customize?
