Re: [Matlab-emacs-discuss] Config problem matlab-emacs on linux

[Guangran K. Z. <gua...@ma...>]

Thank you for the pointer.

Using emacsclient does not support the debugging and code evaluation, 
which I have relied on heavily.

changing ~/X11/app-defaults/Matlab

*externalEditorCommand:	$EDITOR $FILE &

does not provide the debugging and evaluation support as well. Thus, 
using emacs-shell, to the best of my knowledge, is my only option. I 
followed the documentation

http://blogs.mathworks.com/desktop/2009/09/14/matlab-emacs-integration-is-back/

Currently, I am missing on the configuration of linking the matlab 
invoked in the buffer back to the current emacs session.

In the meantime, I experimented with the matlab-shell. In comparison 
with invoking the following on a command line,

$ matlab -nodesktop -nosplash

I found matlab-shell is nice to use, as I could edit the command in the 
buffer. One improvement that I observe, is that if you type the first 
letter of some previous command, alt-p will bring the immediate previous 
command, but will not bring the previous command that starts with the 
same letter.
