The sample 'proj 1' shortcut contains the following script.

pm('save_project')
pm('open_project', 'you project file.mat')

pm does not save your current project. But if you want that functionality, you can do that very easily by modifying this shortcut like:

save workspace
clear
pm('save_project')
pm('open_project', 'you project file.mat')
load workspace

You can further optimize this shortcut as you want. For example, if you want to use the name of the current project for your workspace saving,

[~,name] = fileparts(pm('current_project'));
save([name,'_workspace.mat'])
clear
pm('save_project')
pm('open_project', 'you project file.mat')
[~,name] = fileparts(pm('current_project'));
load([name,'_workspace.mat'])

and so on.

Thanks for your comment.
I found the same problem just now in my new version of Matlab. It turned out that Mathworks changed some internal JAVA class methods manipulating the editor. I need to figure out what kinds of methods I can use. If I'm done, I'll update it.
Thanks again.

I tried your solution and found one negligible drawback, which is that you have to add each function's name in the top function and you have to make a handle in the command line whenever you want to use the function in a different namespace. This is still true when I use a class. But still I think your solution is more elegant because it does not use 'eval' which I don't like either.
