Dave, Good luck with porting your Matlab code. I've done it a few times and found it wasn't difficult but quite tedious. I wrote a macro in NEdit (old text editor that I haven't got round to finding a worthy replacement) to translate matlab to numpy. The macro was basically a series of find&replace statements using regular expressions. It did help a fair bit but it was far from being robust. I'm surprised that there is no established matlab to numpy translater around - correct me if I'm wrong.
It would be useful if Spyder's text editor had macro functionality with keystroke recording - similar to NEdit but better if the macros were in the python language. Then I might ditch NEdit altogether. I might fill in a feature request.
