Windows 7, using the octave-4.2.0-w64.zip installer.  Have the bundled symbolic-win-py-bundle-2.4.0.zip package installed.

A couple help issues below, are some or all of these known issues?


----------------

>> help limit
error: help: 'limit' not found

>> pkg load symbolic

>> help limit
error: help: 'limit' not found

>> syms x

>> help sym
Use of uninitialized value in lc at /usr/lib/perl5/5.8/utf8_heavy.pl line 123.
'sym' is a function from the file C:\Octave\octave-4.2.0-w64\share\octave\packages\symbolic-2.4.0\@
sym\sym.m

 -- Constructor on @sym: X = sym (Y)
 -- Constructor on @sym: X = sym (Y, ASSUMESTR)
 -- Constructor on @sym: X = sym (Y, ASSUMESTR1, ASSUMESTR2, …)
 -- Constructor on @sym: X = sym (A, [N, M])
     Define symbols and numbers as symbolic expressions.

     Y can be an integer, a string or one of several special double
     values.  It can also be a double matrix or a cell array.

     Examples:
          x = sym ('x')
            ⇒ x = (sym) x
          y = sym ('2')
            ⇒ y = (sym) 2
          y = sym (3)
            ⇒ y = (sym) 3
          y = sym (inf)
            ⇒ y = (sym) ∞
          y = sym (pi)
            ⇒ y = (sym) Ï€

<<pager output stops>>

Pager then responds to normal commands, (a 'q' quits, etc.).  but shows nothing else.
