I have recently uploaded mlabwrap v0.9b3, a high-level python to matlab(tm) bridge, you can get it from
<http://mlabwrap.sourceforge.net/> It should work with recent python >=2.3 and matlab(tm) >=6.0; I've used it extensively myself but this is the first announcement to a wider public -- so I'd very much like to hear some feedback (even if it's just "works fine"). Here is a short demo snippet: >>> from mlabwrap import mlab >>> import Numeric >>> mlab.lookfor('singular value') GSVD Generalized Singular Value Decompostion. SVD Singular value decomposition.
