Not sure, but think it’s irrelevant for my particular use. I'm going to try the Programmable Source (Python script) approach (and use scipy.io.loadmat to read my .mat file). Maybe I missed it - is there a way to read in this script from a file? (copy/pasting into the Pgmable Source widget certainly works; just asking) Thanks!
