Hi, I would like to write a Matlab script that performs an operation on the file that is being eddited (file that is displayed now in the editor window). To do so, I need to know the name of the file. I was looking all over the places and didn't find the solution. To be more specific, I looking for a solution like gcf() The reason I'm looking for such a solution is that I would like to do some analysis and processing on the eddited file like: Publish (without the Matlab option), save to... Thank you, Alecs

Or you could use the Editor API. Look for help on matlab.desktop.editor for more information -- it seems like getActiveFilename is what you want.

Considering the editor API has been introduced in 2011, it would be good if its documentation was discoverable.
I certainly wasn't aware of it since a search in the help browser does not return anything useful. Even a lookfor editor does not return any hint that there's such an api.

See Yair's site on how to access the editor. Accessing the name of the file being currently edited is one of the first example:
desktop = com.mathworks.mde.desk.MLDesktop.getInstance;
jEditor = desktop.getGroupContainer('Editor').getTopLevelAncestor;
jEditor.getTitle
Of course, as it relies on undocumented interfaces, there's no guarantee that it will work in future versions.
