I'm currently running long scripts using data stored on multiple external hard drives connected via USB. My computer is smartcard-only, meaning that whenever I leave a script running and come back a while later, I have to "yank out" one of the cables in order to get back in. Often however the script actually finished hours before!
I'm wondering if there's a way to include an "eject hard drive" command at the end of the script. I did some searching of keywords and can't tell if this is possible in Matlab, or how to do so.

This works perfectly, thank you. The final code is a one-liner -- on a Mac, it's
system('diskutil eject MyExternalDrive')
