Thread Subject: output to the user on command line

Subject: output to the user on command line

Hallo,

I'm writing at a program which works with the input
function. This part now works. My current problem deals
with the output. At the end of my program I want to give
the user a feedback what stand in which file. I tried the
followed:

printf('This are your output-files:\n');
printf(' 1. aidaForMchips.txt - constists of all modified
information needed for Mchips without the header\n');
printf(' 2. aidaForTestaida.txt - constists of all
modified information in Mchips format needed for the AIDA-
Test if all Mchips-IDs occure in the correct number
(including the header)\n');

This should be displayed in the command window.
It does not work. I get the following error message:

??? Undefined function or method 'printf' for input
arguments of type 'char'.

Error in ==> aidaimportV5 at 336
printf('This are your output-files:\n');


How must I change it if I want it to be displayed in an
extra window which should be closed by the user after he
read the information.


Thanks,
Corinna
