Re: Octave-Forge: Redesign with responsive layout

[Oliver Heimlich]

Hi Dmitri,

thank you for the observation. Please create a bug report in the category 'Octave Forge Package'. The extraction of the first help sentence happens in the package generate_html.

Fortunately, it doesn't happen very often. Maybe we can simply scan for common abbreviations to prevent it from happening.

Looking at the Octave-Forge website I noticed that the description text of individual functions often gets trancated.

One of the most obvious examples is https://octave.sourceforge.io/data-smoothing/overview.html

yet the problem is widespread. (I assume the code that extract 1st sentence from the help gets tricked by the period in misc abbreviations.)

I could file a bug report but I do not see a proper Category.

Dmitri.
