I was having an issue with `matlab-shell-collect-commmand-output' not deleting the output of emacsdocomplete (or any matlab command), leaving shell completion broken. I found out it was happening because I had the variable `comint-prompt-read-only' set to t.
While investigating that issue, I saw this comment in the function `matlab-shell-collect-command-output': > Ideally there would be some way to prevent the *MATLAB* buffer from refreshing > as we are interacting with it, but I couldn't figure out a way to do that. One potential way to prevent the buffer from refreshing is using the function `comint-redirect-results-list'. So, the function mentioned above can be implemented like this: (defun matlab-shell-collect-command-output (command) "Send COMMAND to matlab process and silently capture output." (car (comint-redirect-results-list command "\\(?:.\\|\n\\)*" 0))) As a bonus, no more issues with read-only prompts.
