Re : How to set up TextMate for MATLAB? - TextMate

27 Apr 2009


      I think I got misunderstood by JiHo : I want to avoid the matlab GUI  
as much as possible. The matlab-console I developed is an  
implementation of the matlab console IN textmate.
For what I described I use a very similar command as JiHo, except that  
I tend to use the cell mode (which Thomas added in the last version of  
the bundle). And in this cases because the commands that are sent to  
the terminal can be long, I use an temporary m-file (called cellrunner  
in the following code).
I've came up with a better applescript thought, which is more robust  
when you have several terminal windows or tabs running :
osascript<<END
tell application "Terminal"
    set termwin to id of windows
    set nwin to count of termwin
    repeat with i from 1 to nwin
    	set ntab to number of tab of window i
    	repeat with j from 1 to ntab
    		set pr to processes of tab j of window i
    		set npr to count of pr
    		set runsmatlab to false
    		repeat with k from 1 to npr
    			set runsmatlab to "MATLAB" = item k of pr
    		end repeat
    		if runsmatlab then
    			set selected of tab j of window i to true
    			do script with command "cellrunner" in tab j of window i
    		end if
    	end repeat
    end repeat
end tell
tell application "MATLAB" to activate
END
