[OS X TeX] OT: MATLAB6p5 incompatible with Jaguar

[Joseph C. Slater]

Nah. All that's really a problem is you don't get the GUI. The help can 
be accessed through any web browser, and matlab can be run from the 
command line in X-Windows by doing
alias matlab 'setenv DYLD_INSERT_LIBRARIES 
/usr/lib/libncurses.dylib;/Applications/MATLAB6p5/bin/matlab -nojvm'
(all one line above)
Then matlab will run fine.  You need to do this in an x terminal if you 
want to be able to do graphics.
I have this in my .cshrc file. You need to make sure it executes on a 
new shell, which is back to the path issue we all love so much.

PS.  I didn't figure all of this out.  Martin Costabel figured out the 
issue with the libraries.
