Hi all,

I am running matlab on Ubuntu 9.10. Now I am wondering whether I can running matlab without opening matlab gui. Basically, I want to using matlab command just in terminal. However, the problem is if I type "matlab", it opens the matlab gui.

So if matlab can be opened just in terminal instead of gui, which command would do the job?

Thanks in advance.

in the terminal:
matlab -nojvm

also look for:
matlab startup options in the documentation.

Strictly speaking,

matlab -nodesktop

would be sufficient since -nojvm turns off all Java functionality which
is used for plotting and lots of other things besides the Desktop
interface.
