Startup Options in DOS Window
When you start MATLAB in a DOS window, include startup options after
the
matlab command.
This example uses the
nosplash startup option to start MATLAB without the
splash screen, and adds the
-r option to run the results function located in
the startup directory, after starting MATLAB in a DOS window:
matlab -nosplash -r "results"
Adding Startup Options for UNIX Platforms
Include startup options (also called command flags or command line switches)
after the
matlab command. On UNIX systems a startup option is preceded by
a hyphen (-). For example, to start MATLAB without the splash screen, type
matlab -nosplash
