How do I expose the code in a function .m file within Live Editor

2 views (last 30 days)
I have placed a wrapper around my call to a function .m file. This allows me to at least document a call to a function. I want to make a Live Editor file that I can use as documentation for the function. If I can see the function code I then hope to do all the cool annotation for the function code, not the wrapper script.

Use dbtype
This also allows you to specify which lines in a function to show (skip error checking, etc).

That almost gets it done. I can now see my function code within the live editor. Even better, if I edit the .m file, the next time I run the live script it updates the code. But I still can't get inside the function code and mark it up within live editor. It's just a read/view only thing.
I did see that if I copy and paste the function code into the live script, then I can document it quite well. But then if I change the function code I have to replicate the cahnges in the live script.
