2/ the better matlab help function that uses more intuitive html linked pages that are better searchable. I think that to change octave help in a better indexed help system could be done, even if I do not have the capabilities to do it, with some javascript help system. I have read that gimp 2.6 help has just been reworked to use webkit and that this is a "progress".
The Help system for DrScheme has also been reworked recently and it has generated quite a bit of excitement. The web pages very dynamic and the layout of help pages is improved and flexible. The PLT folks even came up with a new language (scribl - for scribbling) that manage all the linking and indexing in an intelligent way.
