Creating and Editing Other Text File Types

You can edit any type of text file using the MATLAB Editor/Debugger. For example, you can open and edit an HTML file. Note that you can run or debug only M-files from the Editor/Debugger.

When working with files created for C/C++, Java, and HTML, you can specify syntax highlighting and indenting preferences appropriate to those languages. Select File -> Preferences -> Editor/Debugger -> Language. See details in the online documentation for Editor/Debugger language preferences, or click the Help button in the dialog box.
