##
## Use @code{dump_demos} and @code{html_compare_plot_demos} to produce an
## html comparison of the plot demos for each of Octave's graphics toolkits.
##
## An m-file named @file{dump_plots.m} will be created in the current working
## directory.  This function will be used to render and save the plot demo
## images.
##
## If they do not already exist, directories for each available graphics
## toolkit are created.  Each toolkit's directory will be populated with images
## of each plot demo in the png format.
##
## Finally, an html document named @file{compare_plot_demos.html} is produced.
## This page places each toolkit's images side by side for a convenient
## comparison of the results.
##
## If the property @qcode{"toolkits"} is given then compare only the listed
## toolkits in the cell string.  The list may also include the toolkit
## @qcode{"matlab"}.
