Hi,
This is a nice tool; I had one of my own but never nearly as extensive as this one. Unfortunately, there seems to be an issue with variable names that are also function names. I couldn't solve it, maybe you could...

If, for example, you write

S = struct('sigma',0.25);
v2struct(S);
whos
sigma

on the command prompt, you have that sigma is 0.25. However, if you wrap this into function test.m (not a script, a function) then you have this oddity:

>> test
Name Size Bytes Class Attributes

S 1x1 184 struct
sigma 1x1 8 double

??? Error using ==> sigma at 83
Not enough input arguments.

Error in ==> test at 5
sigma

where Matlab tries to call a function called sigma!?

Any clue?

Great piece of work, thanks.

A minor thing though... Under my installation, the private/ghostscript.m function had a minor bug that resulted in the whole function being whipped out and replaced by solely the 'gs' path. Just in case it happens to anyone else, here is a simple patch:
