add ability to edit multiple files (bug #37573) * edit.m (edit): Change handling of input arguments. Replace with varargin. Use statusvar and statsval to handle status changes. Handle multiple files by calling edit recursively on each file.

## @deftypefn  {Command} {} edit @var{name}
## @deftypefnx {Command} {} edit @var{field} @var{value}
## @deftypefnx {Command} {@var{value} =} edit get @var{field}
## Edit the named function, or change editor settings.
##
## If @code{edit} is called with the name of a file or function as
## its argument it will be opened in a text editor.
##
## @itemize @bullet
## @item
## If the function @var{name} is available in a file on your path and
## that file is modifiable, then it will be edited in place.  If it
## is a system function, then it will first be copied to the directory
## @env{HOME} (see further down) and then edited.
## If no file is found, then the m-file
## variant, ending with ".m", will be considered.  If still no file
## is found, then variants with a leading "@@" and then with both a
## leading "@@" and trailing ".m" will be considered.
##
## @item
## If @var{name} is the name of a function defined in the interpreter but
## not in an m-file, then an m-file will be created in @env{HOME}
## to contain that function along with its current definition.
##
## @item
## If @code{name.cc} is specified, then it will search for @code{name.cc}
## in the path and try to modify it, otherwise it will create a new
## @file{.cc} file in @env{HOME}.  If @var{name} happens to be an
## m-file or interpreter defined function, then the text of that
## function will be inserted into the .cc file as a comment.
##
## @item
## If @var{name.ext} is on your path then it will be edited, otherwise
## the editor will be started with @file{HOME/name.ext} as the
## filename.  If @file{name.ext} is not modifiable, it will be copied to
## @env{HOME} before editing.
##
## @strong{Warning:} You may need to clear name before the new definition
## is available.  If you are editing a .cc file, you will need
## to mkoctfile @file{name.cc} before the definition will be available.
## @end itemize
##
## If @code{edit} is called with @var{field} and @var{value} variables,
## the value of the control field @var{field} will be @var{value}.
## If an output argument is requested and the first argument is @code{get}
## then @code{edit} will return the value of the control field @var{field}.
## If the control field does not exist, edit will return a structure
## containing all fields and values.  Thus, @code{edit get all} returns
## a complete control structure.
## The following control fields are used:
##
## @table @samp
## @item editor
## This is the editor to use to modify the functions.  By default it uses
## Octave's @env{EDITOR} built-in function, which comes from
## @code{getenv ("EDITOR")} and defaults to @code{emacs}.  Use @code{%s}
## In place of the function name.  For example,
##
## @table @samp
## @item [EDITOR, " %s"]
## Use the editor which Octave uses for @code{edit_history}.
##
## @item "xedit %s &"
## pop up simple X11 editor in a separate window
##
## @item "gnudoit -q \"(find-file \\\"%s\\\")\""
## Send it to current Emacs; must have @code{(gnuserv-start)} in @file{.emacs}.
## @end table
##
## See also field 'mode', which controls how the editor is run by Octave.
##
## On Cygwin, you will need to convert the Cygwin path to a Windows
## path if you are using a native Windows editor.  For example:
## @c Set example in small font to prevent overfull line in TeX
##
## @smallexample
## @exdent '"C:/Program Files/Good Editor/Editor.exe" "$(cygpath -wa %s)"'
## @end smallexample
##
## @item home
## This is the location of user local m-files.  Be be sure it is in your
## path.  The default is @file{~/octave}.
##
## @item author
## This is the name to put after the "## Author:" field of new functions.
## By default it guesses from the @code{gecos} field of password database.
##
## @item email
## This is the e-mail address to list after the name in the author field.
## By default it guesses @code{<$LOGNAME@@$HOSTNAME>}, and if @code{$HOSTNAME}
## is not defined it uses @code{uname -n}.  You probably want to override this.
## Be sure to use @code{<user@@host>} as your format.
##
## @item license
##
## @table @samp
## @item gpl
## GNU General Public License (default).
##
## @item bsd
## BSD-style license without advertising clause.
##
## @item pd
## Public domain.
##
## @item "text"
## Your own default copyright and license.
## @end table
##
## Unless you specify @samp{pd}, edit will prepend the copyright statement
## with "Copyright (C) yyyy Function Author".
##
## @item mode
## This value determines whether the editor should be started in async mode
## (editor is started in the background and Octave continues) or sync mode
## (Octave waits until the editor exits).  Set it to "sync" to start the editor
## in sync mode.  The default is "async" (see also "system").
##
## @item editinplace
## Determines whether files should be edited in place, without regard to
## whether they are modifiable or not.  The default is @code{false}.
## @end table
## @end deftypefn
