  ** The octave command no longer starts the GUI by default.  Most users
-    starting Octave from command line were expecting the command line
-    interface and Desktop launchers required the `--force-gui' option
-    anyway.  With this change, desktop launchers should change to use
-    the new option `--gui'.  The previous `--force-gui' will continue to
-    work and maps to `--gui' but will be removed in Octave 6.
