since this conversation is now active, i would just like to comment that
the following repo in github, https://github.com/pronobis/matlab-mode (not
sure the owner is in this list) provides a modified matlab-mode with very
good company-mode support. As an emacs newbie (~ 2 years of use and no
elisp skills) that was easier to setup with autocompletion than the
original cvs matlab-mode.
besides there's at least one other modified version of matlab-mode in
github, https://github.com/yuhonglin/matlab-mode, which i havent tried, but
its worked out company-mode and matlab documentation support according to
the description.
i think the existence of 2 github repos suggests that probably we could
gain from contributions of different people, if their contributions get
merged, and that would alleviate Eric from the task.
