********************************************
Changes from YD's version:
- Fixed indenting for parfor and functions without "end"
- Fixed the "^M" problem caused by DOS filetype in ftplugin/matlab.vim
- Switched %% comments to type "SpecialComments" from "Title"

********************************************
1) put the following into your .vimrc:
" matlab vim
" integration of mlint code checker with :make command
autocmd BufEnter *.m  compiler mlint
" use F5 to run .m file
au FileType matlab map <buffer> <silent> <F5> :w<CR>:!matlab -nodesktop -nosplash -r "try, run(which('%')), pause, end, quit" <CR>\\|<ESC><ESC>
" .m file folding
au FileType matlab set foldmethod=syntax foldcolumn=2 foldlevel=33

2) untar this file in your ~/.vim/: http://cs-people.bu.edu/hekun/misc/matlabvim_kun.tar.gz
which you probably already did.

3) make sure mlint is in your $PATH by linking to <MATLABDIR>/bin/<YOUR_ARCH>/mlint

4) enjoy .m syntax highlighting by trying :colors <colorname> (I put some in /colors/)
and mlint checker by trying :make
