I respect that you were just honestly expressing
your opinion. Certainly no offense taken.
Yet I can rarely resist a good debate ... hence my post.

Why not? I'll explicitly give you permission to do so,
if indeed I haven't already implicitly done that by
publishing it on the FEX.

In once sense you are already doing that by relying on
Matlab. TMW has lots of their code hidden via p-code as
well as by other means. Granted I'm not in the same league
as TMW, yet I've found bugs that TMW was unwilling or not
able to fix. There is one area I would stand above:
If you find a bug or deficiency in my code that I am not
able to correct, I'd happily allow you to take a crack
at fixing it. This is a promise that TMW would never
match :)

p.s. Thanks per !
