How can I modify my PATH variable so that I always access the most recent version of Matlab?
The most recent version of Matlab can always be accessed from ITC supported Unix platforms using the path /uva/bin/matlab. You can see if your Unix account uses this path by typing the Unix command “which matlab” and if the response is /uva/bin/matlab, you can invoke the most recent Matlab version with the command “matlab”. If the response to the “which matlab” command is a different path, you need to modify the PATH variable in your startup file (typically the .variables.ksh, .variables.csh or .profile file) to include /uva/bin and remove any path reference to a Matlab filesystem, e.g. /common/matlab5.3.1/bin. Then relogin to your account. Once your account uses /uva/bin/matlab to access the most recent version of Matlab, you can access the previous version of Matlab with the command “matlab.old”.
