What were you trying to do?
I typed "matlabpath", which was supposed to return the current
MATLABPATH.
What's wrong:
Matlab just died, and didn't do anything. I tried the
same on a vaxstation, and there it worked fine. Thus:
>> matlabpath --> breaks
>> matlabpath('foo') --> this works.
It seems as if on the DEC matlabpath wasn't initialized automatically.
After I defined "matlabpath" (as in the second command), it worked
afterwards.
What should have happened:
I should have gotten the value of the MATLABPATH -- the path where
matlab searches for the .m files.
Please describe any relevant documentation references:
try "help matlabpath" in matlab. it's a builtin.
Thanks,
tom
