-* Improve the index.
-
-* Describe the grammar (grammar.texi).
-
-* More examples.
-
-* Some things from NEWS that might not be documented yet:
-
-  * Expressions of the form
-
-      A(i,j) = x
-
-    where X is a scalar and the indices i and j define a matrix of
-    elements now work as you would expect rather than giving an error.
-    I am told that this is how Matlab 5.0 will behave when it is
-    released.
-    (assignment)
-
-  * Octave's parser now does some simple constant folding.  This means
-    that expressions like 3*i are now evaluated only once, when a
-    function is compiled, and the right hand side of expressions like
-    a = [1,2;3,4] are treated as true matrix constants rather than
-    lists of elements which must be evaluated each time they are
-    needed.
-    (???)
-
-  * Octave now attempts to continue after floating point exceptions
-    or out-of-memory errors.
-    (???)
-
-  * If Octave crashes, it now attempts to save all user-defined
-    variables in a file named 'octave-core' in the current directory
-    before exiting.
-    (???)
-
-  * The info reader is now a separate binary that runs as a
-    subprocess.  You still need the info reader distributed with
-    Octave though, because there are some new command-line arguments
-    that are not yet available in the public release of Info.
-    (install)
-
-  * If it is present, Octave will now use an 'ls-R' database file to
-    speed up recursive path searching.  Octave looks for a file called
-    ls-R in the directory specified by the environment variable
-    OCTAVE_DB_DIR.  If that is not set but the environment variable
-    OCTAVE_HOME is set, Octave looks in $OCTAVE_HOME/lib/octave.
-    Otherwise, Octave looks in the directory $datadir/octave (normally
-    /usr/local/lib/octave).
