Hi Eric,

Thanks so much for taking the time to test it!
It's not unique to that sturct.
Is there anything that I need/can configure on terms of the completion
engine? I'm using company for most other things, maybe there's some
conflict, or some missing configuration?

Thank you for the patch! I'll try it out, and I'll using Matlab mode from
the git source as well.

Do you have a pointers for setting up jump-to-function functionally?

Thanks again for all the help and information, it's really appreciated.

Jonathan
