Do you mean the category index on octave-forge at

http://octave.sourceforge.net/index/index.html

it is missing a few function (please submit patches to the INDEX files) 
that are newly introduced in matlab, but is pretty complete. Funnily 
enough "axes" is not one of the commands that is referenced here, even 
as a function that is present in matlab but not in octave....
