[Matlab-emacs-discuss] [PATCH] Menu: if matlab shell is active replace "Start MATLAB" with "Switch to MATLAB"

[Rüdiger S. <rue...@c-...>]

Hello,
I wrote a small patch to replace the "Start MATLAB" menu entry with a "Switch 
to MATLAB" entry when the matlab shell is active. This might look like a minor 
detail but I think it improves the usability. It makes it clear that "Start 
MATLAB" won't start another shell but switch to the existing one.

Regards,
Rüdiger
