Follow-up Comment #9, bug #65258 (group octave):

new behaviors:

cli defined function:

octave:10> function y = no_doc_fcn (arg1, arg2, arg3)
end
octave:11> help no_doc_fcn
'no_doc_fcn' is a command-line function

undocumented function y = no_doc_fcn (arg1, arg2, arg3)

...


file defined function:

octave:15> help no_doc_fcn
'no_doc_fcn' is a function from the file
/home/nrjank/source/builds/no_doc_fcn.m

undocumented function y = no_doc_fcn (arg1, arg2, arg3)

...


'empty' classdef file from comment #6:

octave:16> help no_doc_class
'no_doc_class' is a class constructor from the file
/home/nrjank/source/builds/no_doc_class.m

default constructor: obj = no_doc_class()

...


classdef file with constructor from comment #7


octave:17> help foo_class
'foo_class' is a class constructor from the file
/home/nrjank/source/builds/foo_class.m

undocumented constructor obj = foo_class (a, b, c = 2, ~)
