In response to your original post, the differences between the Mac and Windows GUIs really aren't that significant--I use the Mac version daily and am forced to use the Windows version at least once a week. Certainly someone who is capable of using the Editor should be able to extrapolate from the screenshots provided to the appropriate version of Matlab. @Gaurav,

I just hope the Mac 'devotees' at Mathworks don't turn fanatics and suddenly stop making good software for Windows users. Or are Mathworks developers planning to only cater to the "Mac experience"? Thank you.

The prevalence of Mac screenshots is not by explicit intent, but is due to the reality that our most passionate desktop bloggers are Mac devotees. Whether this speaks to the general mindset of the Macintosh community, or is pure coincidence, is a thought exercise left to the reader. :) KEN Thanks for the feedback, we’ll definitely include more Windows screenshots.

It will make following the steps you list far more easier. Thanks. It will be nice if you can post screenshots from Windows machines too (sometimes if not always).
