I've only had a quick look at your text as I don't have much time right now. So, just two quick commentsI attach a patch that adds an appendix to the manual that discusses dynamically linked functions. This is based on Coda, dal Segno and takes the oct-file section from the sparse. It also addresses a couple of small issue in the texinfo elsewhere, like the missing {} with @result and errors in the indexing of the nodes that means the makeinfo build failed. There are a few missing sections marked with "WRITE ME", and in particular the section on mex-files is almost empty. I'll try to fill these in soon, but if other would like to help out, even if only to criticize what I wrote, then I'd appreciate it.
1) You say that an oct file always should return an octave_value_list. However, in one example you return an octave_value, which also is OK.
2) I didn't see any mention of garbage collection. It would be nice if the manual mentions that ref-counting is used, and what that means to memory allocation for the user.
But, from what I saw, your text looked good, Søren
