I applied this patch along with some style fixes for the code and the
Texinfo markup, mostly to move text out of the @example environments
and to also avoid placing @deftypefnx macros in the middle of hte
doc string.  The initial part of the documentation now says:

 -- Function File: L = legendre (N, X)
 -- Function File: L = legendre (N, X, NORMALIZATION)
     Compute the Legendre function of degree N and order M.  The
     optional argument my be one of `"unnorm"', `"sch"', or `"norm"'.
     The default is `"unnorm"'.  The value of N must be a non-negative
     scalar integer.

     If the optional argument NORMALIZATION is missing or is
     `"unnorm"', compute the Legendre function of degree N and order M
     and return all values for M = 0 ... N.  The return value has one
     dimension more than X.

Where does M come from?
