Version: 2004.11.16-3
Severity: minor

The weekday function has incorrect documentation.  Its documentation 
appears to be a copy of datevec's documentation.  The doc at the 
beginning should read something like:

--- Begin Documentation
## -*- texinfo -*-
## @deftypefn {Function File} {[d,s] =} weekday(date, [P])
## Takes a date (in either datenum format or a string that datenum can
## parse) and returns the number for the day of the week (0 = "Sun", 
## 1 = "Mon", ... , "Sat")
##
## The parameter @code{P} is needed to convert date strings with 2 digit
## years into dates with 4 digit years.  2 digit years are assumed to be
## between @code{P} and @code{P+99}. If @code{P} is not given then the 
## current year - 50 is used, so that dates are centered on the present.
## For birthdates, you would want @code{P} to be current year - 99.  For
## appointments, you would want @code{P} to be current year.
##
## @seealso{date,clock,now,datestr,datenum,datevec,calendar} 
## @end deftypefn
--- End Documentation

Hopefully, I'll be able to submit a patch that will help with making 
datevec accept strings soon, too.
