Can you be more explicit?

From the Octave prompt, you can access the html version of the doc using
"doc". Typing "doc axis" you'll basically see the same as the online doc
[1].

AFAICS, Octave Forge [2] just includes the demos, printed at the end. If it
is what you are talking about then you can access those demos interactively
using "demo axis". See also the following open bug about making
documentation for graphics functions more colorful :

I think all versions of documentation are same, be it online, pdf or software.

Hi Brett,
The link you gave me for documentation at octave forge is much better than the documentation available in the octave program.
i was not aware of the octave forge. yes this documentation is much better.
Thanks

Hi Brett,

Thank you for the well-wishing for safety!

We always keep the mailing list CCed by using Reply All so that everyone can contribute to and benefit from the discussions. We also have a convention of bottom-posting, or replying below the quoted text.

The documentation is very much meant for anyone to be able to use. It has many examples, starts at the most basic level before building up to more advanced topics, and explains how to read the documentation, here in the beginning of the documentation.

There are also many copy-and-paste examples on sourceforge; here is one relevant to your question.

Lastly, I have a long way to go before I become an expert... I'm just a beginner who learned to use the documentation and experiment with it!
