I'm making a graphical interface for a Simulink model, where the user
is to define a large number of parameters for different vehicle
configurations.

Instead of saving a whole simulink model for every parameter set
entered, Im going to save the user's parameters in .mat file.

I just wonder if it's possible to define my own file extension, so
that other irrelevant .mat files don't confuse the user when they're
loading their old parameter sets?

The workaround is to just ensure the parameter .mat files are saved in
an exclusive directory, but i just wondered.

This is a stupid way to do thongs. Find out what you
*really* are trying to do, and ask how to achieve that.

You might of course save using any file extension you prefer. When loading, use '-mat' option in load command to force the MAT file format.
