That's a problem with running processes in comint. You can set the
number of columns manually: create a shell skript "mymatlab" or similar,
containing the following

export COLUMNS=175
stty rows 65 cols 175
<PATH TO MATLAB>/matlab $*

Adapt the number of columns/rows to your needs and use that script in
`matlab-shell-command'.
