Hi, The external editor is set up when MATLAB runs the file in toolbox/emacsinit.m. Emacs-shell should run this automatically, but if it failed, you could run it by hand.
You can also open the MATLAB preferences, and under the editor, specify an external editor, and specify "emacsclient -n". You can refer to the emacsinit.el for the different preferences set.
