Re: [Matlab-emacs-discuss] matlab-shell-mode for existing matlab process

[L. L. S. <ls...@gm...>]

All,

I just tried renaming a *shell* buffer running Matlab to *MATLAB*.  It kinda works, but not completely.  "Run Region" for example, works, but inserts an extra ">" prompt that must be removed by hand, unlike a buffer actually created by "matlab-shell".

Am I missing something?

Thanks, Larrabee

Then it behaves like the matlab-shell, i.e. you can send code from matlab code buffers, etc.  You could use "rename-buffer", i.e. "M-x rename-buffer", or use the following function (put the following code into ".emacs.d/init.el").  Restart your emacs and then "M-x rename-matlab".

Instead, you have to figure out how to create an emacs command that creates a new buffer e.g. for an 'ansi-term', then does ssh somewhere, and starts matlab.  Finally you rename the buffer to "*MATLAB*", that's it!  Possibly the people at http://stackoverflow.com/ can help you with writing the necessary elisp code.  I would be also interested in such a emacs command.
