Hello, I'm trying to figure out if Matlab has a capability of connecting with the Windows(XP) command line so as to run various other windows platform software through Matlab. I don't want to start Matlab from the Windows command line, I want to use the Windows command line from a Matlab script. Ideally, I'd like to write a Matlab script that uses the Windows command line to run a .grib2 file through a GRIB decoder to create a text file from the data, then import that text file into Matlab to run some data analysis on it. I can do each of these steps individually, but I wanted to try to call the GRIB decoder from the Windows command line through Matlab. If anyone knows how to do this, I'd love to know!
Thanks a lot,
-Khiya
