Psychtoolbox and OS X Matlab?

Hi All,

I'm not sure if this has been asked before (I searched through the
archives, and wasn't able to find anything), but I have two questions:

1) Will Psychtoolbox work on OS X with the new version of Matlab?
(I'm guessing not, since OS X is not Unix based)
2) If not, is there a timetable as to when it might be released for
OS X?

If you can, please reply to nknouf@....

Thanks!

I assume the "not" before the Unix in (1) was a typo.

Last April during evenings I ported some of the source for Screen.mex
(the easy stuff) to work under OSX with the aim of getting it to work
with an open-source alternative to MATLAB called Octave.
Unfortunately I haven't done anything since then, but I am on the
verge of getting back into it once I have R13 and 10.2 in hand. Of
course the real thing to wait for is Allen's OpenGL version of the
PTB.

Ahh, indeed, that was a typo.

If you need or want any testers, let me know; I'd be happy to be a
beta tester, but I know that I wouldn't be much help programming wise.
I'm planning on trying out the new OS X version of matlab as soon
as possible.
