;;; Installation:
;;
;; Put the this file as "matlab.el" somewhere on your load path, then
;; add this to your .emacs or site-init.el file:
;;
;;   (autoload 'matlab-mode "matlab" "Enter MATLAB mode." t)
;;   (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)
;;
;; If you are using a version of MATLAB with the Desktop enabled,
;; you may need to add this:
;;
;;   (setq matlab-shell-command-swithes '("-nojvm"))
;;
;; Please read the mode help for matlab-mode for additional
;; configuration options.
;;
;; Syntax highlighting:
;;   To get font-lock try adding this for older emacsen:
;;     (font-lock-mode 1)
;;   Or for newer versions of Emacs:
;;     (global-font-lock-mode t)
;;   To get hilit19 support try adding:
;;     (matlab-mode-hilit)
;;
;; This package requires easymenu, tempo, and derived.
;; This package will optionally use custom, shell, and gud.
;; This package supports language specific extensions in imenu, func-menu,
;;      speedbar, font-lock, and hilit19.
