: val = suppress_verbose_help_message ()
: old_val = suppress_verbose_help_message (new_val)
: suppress_verbose_help_message (new_val, "local")

Query or set the internal variable that controls whether Octave will add additional help information to the end of the output from the help command and usage messages for built-in commands.

When called from inside a function with the "local" option, the variable is changed locally for the function and any subroutines it calls. The original variable value is restored when exiting the function.
