irisstartup
irisstartup -shutup
We recommend that you keep the IRIS root directory on the permanent Matlab search path. Each time you wish to start working with IRIS, you run irisstartup
form the command line. At the end of the session, you can run irisfinish
to remove IRIS subfolders from the temporary Matlab search path, and to clear persistent variables in some of the backend functions.
The irisstartup
performs the following steps:
Adds necessary IRIS subdirectories to the temporary Matlab search path.
Removes redundant IRIS folders (e.g. other or older installations) from the Matlab search path.
Resets IRIS configuration options to default, updates the location of TeX/LaTeX executables, and calls irisuserconfig
to modify the configuration option.
Associates the default IRIS extensions with the Matlab Editor. If they had not been associated before, Matlab must be re-started for the association to take effect.
Prints an introductory message on the screen unless irisstartup
is called with the -shutup
input argument.
