    _______________________________________________________

Details:

With graphics_toolkit gnuplot and fltk (see $(HTML_DIR) target in Makefile),
if a demo in a @class method produces a plot, ghostscript fails with


GPL Ghostscript 9.06: **** Could not open the file
a-dummy-package-html/a-dummy-package/function/@xyz/images/@xyz/doit_951.png


because the parent dir "a-dummy-package/function/@xyz/images/@xyz" doesn't
exist. I think the error is in html_help_text.m around line 263 but I'm too
confused from the many imagedir, filenames and so on to provide a good patch
yet.

But I've created a dummy packages which shows the error. Just unpack
generate_html_bug.tar.gz, then run "make html"

With graphics_toolkit qt it just fails silently without creating the images.
