Follow-up Comment #24:

I made some modifications and pushed your patch here:
http://hg.savannah.gnu.org/hgweb/octave/rev/d052c11d47c6

Among other things:
I modified some examples to avoid overfull hboxes in the pdf manual.
I changed some error messages. In particular, it might lead to unexpected
errors when passing a variable of unknown type into a formatted string.
I'm not sure about the try-catch-block to check if the input is convertible to
logical. Those tend to slow down code execution. But I don't know of a better
way to do it off hand. So I left it in.
The other changes are minor.

Thanks again for your contribution.
Would you like to be acknowledged as a contributor at the beginning of the
manual? Should your middle name or initial be included?
