## Search for the string @var{str} in the documentation of all functions in the
## current function search path.
##
## By default, @code{lookfor} looks for @var{str} in just the first sentence of
## the help string for each function found.  The entire help text of each
## function can be searched by using the @qcode{"-all"} argument.  All searches
## are case insensitive.
##
## When called with no output arguments, @code{lookfor} prints the list of
## matching functions to the terminal.  Otherwise, the output argument
## @var{fcns} contains the function names and @var{help1str} contains the first
## sentence from the help string of each function.
##
## Programming Note: The ability of @code{lookfor} to correctly identify the
## first sentence of the help text is dependent on the format of the function's
## help.  All Octave core functions are correctly formatted, but the same can
## not be guaranteed for external packages and user-supplied functions.
## Therefore, the use of the @qcode{"-all"} argument may be necessary to find
## related functions that are not a part of Octave.
##
## The speed of lookup is greatly enhanced by having a cached documentation
## file.  See @code{doc_cache_create} for more information.
