Simple, only supports ifdef/endif/else with define/undef and simple syntax for doing boolean expressions.

My apologies to the author of the MPP package (also available). I needed something quick & dirty. Seems to work. Comes with test file.

Version Published Release Notes Action
1.4.0.0

Swapped rmdir and path statements to avoid warning.

1.3.0.0

Added support for pre-specifying defines on command line (_very_ raw). Also use new path each time, so that can actually run several instances of MATLAB, same m1 file, different defines, concurrently.

1.2.0.0

Support for simple recursion (see examples).

1.1.0.0

Changed based on comments - thank you. Intended use for others is by running mpp('mpptest',param). Added some comments. Simple but works well.
