Hi Pantxo,
the used scripts are in octave-src/scripts/testfun/private/

dump_demos creates a script with the demo blocks which can be run with 
FLTK, gnuplot and Matlab,
html_compare_plot_demos fills the result to the html template.

Btw, do you know http://wiki.octave.org/Plot_comparison?

I can run the scripts for FLTK and gnuplot on 4.0-rc1 but haven't access 
to Matlab (I'm even unsure if the matlab scripts would run after the 
last changes which removed for example sombrero) and yes, I can host 
them on tech-chat.de
