Hi,

An equation is missing from the help file of 'envelope': sqrt(x(n)^2 + y(n)^2).

Here is the fix (I've formatted the paragraph after inserting the
missing equation):

$ diff -u aux/help/envelope.old aux/help/envelope
--- aux/help/envelope.old 2008-08-28 17:33:18.000000000 -0400

DESCRIPTION:
This command computes the envelope function of the data in memory. The
-envelope is defined by: where x(n) is the original signal and y(n) its
-Hilbert transform (see HILBERT.) As with HILBERT, very long period data
-should be decimated (see DECIMATE) prior to processing.
