Follow-up Comment #2, bug #39922 (project octave):
I confirm that type displays the content of the file if I rename it to
README.txt instead of README.
According to the documentation, however, nothing should be displayed since
README.txt is not a function:
++
'type' is a function from the file /usr/share/octave/3.6.4/m/help/type.m
-- Command: type NAME ...
-- Command: type -q NAME ...
-- Function File: dfns = type ("NAME", ...)
Display the definition of each NAME that refers to a function.
Normally also displays whether each NAME is user-defined or
built-in; the `-q' option suppresses this behavior.
If an output argument is requested nothing is displayed. Instead,
a cell array of strings is returned, where each element
corresponds to the definition of each requested function.
