Ok, I also just noticed that help from oct-files weren't being properly
searched by lookfor. Here is an updated patched...
Cheers

* help.cc (make_name_list): Add autoload functions to list of available
completions.
(simple_help): Add autoloaded functions to functions listed
(first_help_sentence): Avoid issue with single line help string
that is not terminated in \n.
(Flookfor): Check for string match in the keyword/function, etc name.
Also use look for string match in help of autoloaded functions.
Load oct-files to be able to access their help string.
* parse.y (string_vector autoloaded_functions (void)): New function
to list all autloaded functions.
(string_vector reverse_lookup_autoload (const std::string& nm)):
Reverse lookup function to match file to autoloaded functions.
* parse.h (autoloaded_functions, reverse_lookup_autoload): Declaration.
