suppress_verbose_help_message is a built-in variable

 -- Built-in Variable: suppress_verbose_help_message
     If the value of `suppress_verbose_help_message' is nonzero, Octave
     will not add additional help information to the end of the output
     from the `help' command and usage messages for built-in commands.
