Hi @Tongyao
If you want to quickly view the content of MATLAB script files (.m) in your terminal without launching MATLAB, you can navigate to your MATLAB path by using the cd command and to view the scripts you can use various command-line text editors or viewers in linux. Here are a few options:
- cat Command: You can use the cat command to display the content of MATLAB script files in your terminal.
cat some_script.m
This will display the content of some_script.m directly in the terminal.
- less Command: The less command allows you to view the content of a file one screen at a time. To view a MATLAB script
less some_script.m
You can scroll through the file using the arrow keys and exit by pressing q.
- more Command: Similar to less, the more command lets you view files page by page
more some_script.m
This will display the content of some_script.m in the terminal.
- vim Command: The most basic text editor available on linux platform.
vim some_script.m
Using these commands, you can quickly check the content of MATLAB script files without launching MATLAB or using any GUI-based editors. This should work well with VS Code, as you can open your terminal directly within VS Code and use these commands there.
I hope this helps.
