Hello, 

I've read that there is a Matlab compiler which is able to create standalone Matlab applications. I have several questions on that:

- I am using a GUI and also some 3D plots for a program which I am developing entirely in Matlab (it's a rather simple program showing a 3D animation of a spinning top). Is it possible to create a standalone app with these "components"?

- Does the compiler require some special programming or something, or can I just use it on a given - let's say - m-File or several m-Files?

- Is the compiler for free? Where can I download/buy it? Can it compile for Linux and for Windows, or would I have to buy separate compilers? Is it able to handle even 3D plots on different OS?

Thank you in advance, I'm curious to read your replies!

Alexander
