first steps

Per FarmShare software try something like:

module avail
module load matlab

If you're running MATLAB for the first time, it'll try to write some stuff into $HOME/.matlab so make sure you have your AFS tokens or else MATLAB will crash with an undecipherable error message.

As of 9/22/2013 this works on the corn.stanford.edu cluster but NOT on the myth.stanford.edu cluster.
