I don't know if .mat files are being used in the source code. Why not rename
it with a .m extension and then include it? As for the documentation, I
discovered these back when I was getting my hands dirty in the source code a
few months back. So, you'll need to play with the source or it's always good
to ask on IRC/mailing lists when getting stuck.

Sahil,
       .m files and .mat files are very different and I don't think that renaming would work, also I'm pretty sure that .mat files are being included. I came across one and only one file .mat file in the source code and its called penny.mat. Thank you for helping though.

       Rik, I have CC:'d you this mail because you've been following my project and I see here[1] that you know something about this penny.mat file. Basically, to increase the speed of my command generation algorithm, I plan to reduce the sample space using some smart estimations. One step towards that would be to store all the function names (core+forge) in a very effectively organized .mat file and loading only the probable corrections to compare with the incorrect spelling. Basically, I need help figuring out how this .mat file will be included in module.mk file of scripts/help folder. Maybe it is similar to how penny.mat is hooked with octave? Would you happen to know something about this?

       Besides that, If you have any other suggestion about I should effectively store the commands then they would be appreciated as well. Also, should we move these discussions to a separate thread?
