Last change on this file since 2018 was 154, checked in by dkearney, 19 years ago

modified matlab bindings and tests.
includes all popular functions available in RpLibrary? and RpUnits
compile and run, but not all tests work as they should
some of these functions will be removed soon because the id field is
no longer a valid argument. path ids should be incorporated in paths from now on.
