sampleStartup.m

%% Startup script for use with the Toolbox Toolbox.
%
% Here is a sample startup.m for works with the ToolboxToolbox.  You
% should copy this file to your system outside of the ToolboxToolbox
% folder.  You should rename this file to "startup.m".  You should edit
% Your startup.m with the correct toolboxToolboxDir, and any Matlab
% preferences you wish to change for your local machine.
%
% This sample is focused on the ToolboxToolbox.  You can include additional
% startup actions, if you wish.
