============================

setup
-----

Add the following to your .emacs file:

      
      ;; load matlab-mode
      (load "/home/helpdesk/trial/matlab-mode/matlab")
      
      ;; syntax color
      (global-font-lock-mode t)

      ;; use matlab-mode when you load .m files
      (setq auto-mode-alist (cons '("\\.m\\'" . matlab-mode) auto-mode-alist))
      (autoload 'matlab-shell "matlab" "Interactive Matlab mode." t)
      ;;
      ;; User Level customizations (You need not use them all):
      (setq matlab-indent-function t)    ; if you want function bodies indented
      (setq matlab-verify-on-save-flag nil) ; turn off auto-verify on save
      (defun my-matlab-mode-hook () (setq fill-column 76))       ; where auto-fill should wrap
      (add-hook 'matlab-mode-hook 'my-matlab-mode-hook)
      (defun my-matlab-shell-mode-hook ()  '())
      (add-hook 'matlab-shell-mode-hook 'my-matlab-shell-mode-hook)

      ;; use F10 to submit selected txt
      (define-key matlab-mode-map (quote [f10]) `matlab-shell-run-region)
