Hello John,I am using 2.1.73. I downloaded the "Test version", and under Fedora Core 5, configured, compiled and installed. I found the following "Built-in Variable" (per the book) were not listed in the help (I've attached the list of built-in variables reported by the version below):
empty_list_elements_ok (p44) propagate_empty_matricies (p45) I also found the following variable had no effect (per my prior message): whitespace_in_literal_matrix (p41)These could be a documentation issue (more likely stupid user tricks), but thought I'd ask. I had assumed that the compiled version would be more targeted, but not necessarily less complete). None of this is a big deal, just was curious to make sure I didn't screw something up.

I realize that it does not appear in the help, just curious as to when it dissapeared.What version of Octave are you using? If it is 2.9.6, then take a at the NEWS file that is distributed with the Octave sources. If you installed a binary package, it should be with the other "extra documentation" files. Debian puts it in the file /usr/share/doc/octave2.9/NEWS.gz. jwe
