@OP: Sorry for the too long delay.  If you are still interested in publishing your efforts as a new package, "Octave Forge" is no longer actively supported and superseded by "Octave Packages"

https://github.com/gnu-octave/packages/blob/main/CONTRIBUTING.md

Closing this report.

@mike, assuming at this point this should just be closed as a won't fix.

The benchmark package is still completely unmaintained and inactive, and no current or prospective Octave Forge contributors seem interested in taking it up. I doubt that this patch item will be addressed any time soon or at all in a way that you originally wanted.

It looks like you are more interested in this functionality than anyone I'm aware of. If it scratches an itch that is important to you, then I would encourage you to consider maintaining the benchmark package, or continue to maintain this benchmark2 package as your own external Octave package.

You've mentioned that Octave Forge is too much of a burden, but maintaining your own external package is quite easy and not a burden at all, so maybe you would consider following that option and dropping this patch.

For example, I once submitted patch #9020, but I have since closed it and moved the functions to my own externally maintained octave-goodies package.

Thanks for the reply, and for all your contribution to octave.

Almost a year passed since my proposition,
and I'm progressively migrating to the julia language now.
Besides, following the maintainers mailing list recent threads,
octave-forge seems too much a burden.

This is unfortunate as benchmark2 is much easier to use, IMO.
In forge it would be more visible and benefit to more people.

If anybody wants to grab and maintain it, please do so.
I'd gladly help in the beginning.

As you can probably tell, the benchmark package is completely unmaintained at this point, it hasn't been touched since 2010.

If you want to maintain it in Octave Forge, your work would probably be welcome. Or if you want to maintain your own outside of Octave Forge, that is incredibly easy now that pkg allows installing from any URL.

To get colored output, the cprintf function is needed:

Here is an overhaul of the benchmark package:
https://sourceforge.net/projects/octave-benchmark2/

Parse, run and analyze steps are separated.

The old benchutil_* functions have been preserved,
and the benchmarks_* have been upgraded.

As an example, octave_benchmarks_18504.m is a script used to
compare octave versions.
screenshot.png is the final display for 4.2.1 (columns 1 and 2) and 4.4.0 (columns 3 and 4) versions.

More informations in the README.md.

Any chance it could be pulled in the benchmark package ?
