Object oriented interface to Matlab

For many novice users the interface to Matlab can appear somewhat daunting. Users brought up on programs with a graphical user interface can find the command line interface presented by Matlab daunting. For average users, requiring the ability to perform tasks such as Control System Design and basic Signal Processing operations, numerous calls to Matlab routines need to be learnt to achieve even the simplest of results. In order to alleviate this obstacle and provide an easy to use and intuitive interface a graphical `front end´ employing the freely available Tcl/Tk programming toolkit is utilised to provide a point and click and drag and drop interface in order to enable rapid design and prototyping with minimal knowledge of the underlying computer engine, in this case Matlab
