## Generate reports from Octave script files in several output formats.
##
## The generated reports consider Publishing Markup in comments,
## which is explained in detail in the GNU Octave manual.  Assume the
## following example, using some Publishing Markup, to be the content
## of a script file named @samp{example.m}:
##
## @example
## @group
## %% Headline title
## %
## % Some *bold*, _italic_, or |monospaced| Text with
## % a <http://www.octave.org link to *GNU Octave*>.
## %%
##
## # "Real" Octave commands to be evaluated
## sombrero ()
##
## ## Octave comment style supported as well
## #
## # * Bulleted list item 1
## # * Bulleted list item 2
## #
## # # Numbered list item 1
## # # Numbered list item 2
## @end group
## @end example
##
## To publish this script file, type @code{publish ("example.m")}.
##
## With only @var{filename} given, a HTML report is generated in a
## subdirectory @samp{html} relative to the current working directory.
## The Octave commands are evaluated in a seperate context and any
## figures created while executing the script file are included in the
## report.  All formatting syntax of @var{filename} is treated according
## to the specified output format and included in the report.
##
## Using @code{publish (@var{filename}, @var{output_format})} is
## equivalent to the function call using a structure
##
## @example
## @group
## @var{options}.format = @var{output_format};
## publish (@var{filename}, @var{options})
## @end group
## @end example
##
## @noindent
## which is described below.  The same holds for using option-value-pairs
##
## @example
## @group
## @var{options}.@var{option1} = @var{value1};
## publish (@var{filename}, @var{options})
## @end group
## @end example
##
## The structure @var{options} can have the following field names.  If a
## field name is not specified, the default value is considered:
##
## @itemize @bullet
## @item
## @samp{format} --- Output format of the published script file, one of
##
## @samp{html} (default), @samp{doc}, @samp{latex}, @samp{ppt},
## @samp{xml}, or @samp{pdf}.
##
## The output formats @samp{doc}, @samp{ppt}, and @samp{xml} are currently
## not supported.  To generate a @samp{doc} report, open a generated
## @samp{html} report with your office suite.
##
## @item
## @samp{outputDir} --- Full path string of a directory, where the generated
## report will be located.  If no directory is given, the report is generated
## in a subdirectory @samp{html} relative to the current working directory.
##
## @item
## @samp{stylesheet} --- Not supported, only for @sc{matlab} compatibility.
##
## @item
## @samp{createThumbnail} --- Not supported, only for @sc{matlab} compatibility.
##
## @item
## @samp{figureSnapMethod} --- Not supported, only for @sc{matlab} compatibility.
##
## @item
## @samp{imageFormat} --- Desired format for images produced, while
## evaluating the code.  The allowed image formats depend on the output
## format:
##
## @itemize @bullet
## @item @samp{html} and @samp{xml} --- @samp{png} (default), any other
## image format supported by Octave
##
## @item @samp{latex} --- @samp{epsc2} (default), any other image format
## supported by Octave
##
## @item @samp{pdf} --- @samp{jpg} (default) or @samp{bmp}, note @sc{matlab}
## uses  @samp{bmp} as default
##
## @item @samp{doc} or @samp{ppt} --- @samp{png} (default), @samp{jpg},
## @samp{bmp}, or @samp{tiff}
## @end itemize
##
## @item
## @samp{maxHeight} and @samp{maxWidth} --- Maximum height (width) of the
## produced images in pixels.  An empty value means no restriction.  Both
## values have to be set, to work properly.
##
## @samp{[]} (default), integer value @geq{} 0
##
## @item
## @samp{useNewFigure} --- Use a new figure window for figures created by
## the evaluated code.  This avoids side effects with already opened figure
## windows.
##
## @samp{true} (default) or @samp{false}
##
## @item
## @samp{evalCode} --- Evaluate code of the Octave source file
##
## @samp{true} (default) or @samp{false}
##
## @item
## @samp{catchError} --- Catch errors while code evaluation and continue
##
## @samp{true} (default) or @samp{false}
##
## @item
## @samp{codeToEvaluate} --- Octave commands that should be evaluated prior
## to publishing the script file.  These Octave commands do not appear in the
## generated report.
##
## @item
## @samp{maxOutputLines} --- Maximum number of shown output lines of the
## code evaluation
##
## @samp{Inf} (default) or integer value > 0
##
## @item
## @samp{showCode} --- Show the evaluated Octave commands in the generated
## report
##
## @samp{true} (default) or @samp{false}
## @end itemize
##
## The returned @var{output_file} is a string with the path and file name
## of the generated report.
