+  * Octave now stops executing commands from a script file if an error
+    is encountered.
+
+  * The return, and break commands now cause Octave to quit executing
+    commands from script files.  When used in invalid contexts, the
+    break, continue, and return commands are now simply ignored
+    instead of producing parse errors.
+
+  * size ("") is now [0, 0].
+
+  * New functions:
+
+      sleep   -- pause execution for a specified number of seconds
+      usleep  -- pause execution for a specified number of microseconds

 Octave is a high-level interactive language primarily intended for
 numerical computations.  It is mostly compatible with Matlab.
