Re: [Matlab-emacs-discuss] matlab-emacs configuration questions

[<xa...@gm...>]

Oh, it seems I spoke too soon.

- color-theme seems to break the customization group, but not the
auto-completion

- i had set comint-prompt-read-only in my .emacs file, and that broke
the auto-completion

Hope this helps someone else. I couldn't find any info on debugging
the matlab auto-completion on google. The output with
comint-prompt-read-only looks like:

>> matlabMCRprocess = com.mathworks.jmi.MatlabMCR;matlabMCRprocess.mtFindAllTabCompletions('mfil'), clear('matlabMCRprocess');
ans =

java.lang.String[]:
    'mfilename'
    'mfilt'
    'mfiltcicdecimdemo'
    'mfiltdecimatorsdemo'
    'mfilter'
    'mfiltgettingstarteddemo'
    'mfiltinterpolatorsdemo'
