Matlab is hard-core engineering/math software. John, your best bet is to talk to Mathworks directly. It can definitely be used from the CLI, in either interactive or batch modes; that's how I learned to use it in all my engineering control and communications systems design courses, about ten years ago. It's been a while... There are student editions, so it can be had very affordably for those in learning mode, but ultimately you're better off discussing the pricing and technical details with them directly. Hope this helps! Andrew. > what the heck is it? > ----- Original Message ----- > From: "John J.
