File Information
Description

This startup.m file creates a diary file automatically when MATLAB is started. The date and time of day are incorporated into the name of the diary file in an easily readable and chronologically sorted fashion so that you always have an organized permanent record of all your sessions.

To use this file you will save it in the (unix) /matlab(version)/toolbox/local folder (for pc's \ instead of / and a c: in front). You then need to create a "diaries" subfolder of /matlab(vers)/work. Also edit the first line of startup.m's extra_paths= to include where your personal scripts are located. Finally add your name to the last line of startup.m for a personal touch!

MATLAB release MATLAB 5.3 (R11)
Other requirements None
