[Octave-bug-tracker] [bug #29427] mex help text not working

[anonymous]

Follow-up Comment #1, bug #29427 (project octave):

looks to me like the problem is that in help.cc, we start searching for help
text.  If we find the function in the symbol table (which I guess means it is
either a built-in or dynamically linked as opposed to a script file) then we
stop.  The patch makes us keep looking if the help text found from the symbol
table lookup is empty.  

I tried help on a few other functions and it looks like I didn't break
anything, but this should be reviewed perhaps by someone who understands that
bit of code a little better.
