[Matlab-emacs-discuss] Matlab Autocompletion

[Christian S. <crs...@um...>]

Hi,

I use Emacs with Matlab mode and its working absolutely great. There is one minor issue though. The semantic autocompletion parser scans every file in my Matlab directory (including all packages and examples). Thus it is incredibly slow when trying to autocomplete. Also if I stop typing after one character is starts scanning for possible autocompletions starting with that character which takes forever. Is there any way to exclude the matlab toolboxes and examples from the semantic scanner? I attached the relevant parts of my .emacs file below.

Thanks,
Chris
