Attach multiple terminals to a MATLAB workspace
Show older comments
I use the linux terminal for most of my work. What I'd like to be able to do is connect several instances of
matlab -nodesktop
to the same workspace in MATLAB. I'd like to be able to have access to the same data from several terminals.
Is this even possible?

No, that is not possible.

You could have a MATLAB session that acted as a TCP server, and which was sent requests that it served.
If you were using MS Windows then it would also be possible to use MATLAB as an automation server; such servers share workspace. This involves ActiveX so it will not work on Linux or Mac.
On all OS, you could use the MATLAB Engine API; https://www.mathworks.com/help/matlab/matlab_external/introducing-matlab-engine.html. On Unix this uses pipes, which implies that the engine is not shared.
