I am using the version of Matlab that has appeared on comp.binaries.amiga
very recently.  It seems to work fine as long as I don't use the help
command to get a list of commands.  If I type "help", I get the command
list.  But the the next time I try to execute any function, I get the 
guru.  Guru Meditation 00000004.0000A708.  This is with no startup-sequence,
on a 512K Amiga 1000, 2 disk drives.  I tried disconnecting the second
drive, to see if it was a memory problem.  It worked, until I tried to exit
at which point it crashed with Guru 81000009.265F48F1.  If I don't type
help, everything seems to work fine.  If I type "help atan" or some such
command, then everything seems to work fine.  Only "help" by itself seems
to cause any problems.  Any ideas?
