Adding directories to your matlab path

Create a 'matlab' directory in your home directory if it does not already exist (every time you launch matlab, it will look into this directory to set up the path)

Within this directory, create a file called 'startup.m', with the mincdiffusion directory included (example here)

Open the startup.m file and modify the /path/to/mincdiffusion line to match the location where you installed it (you should also modify the path/to/niak which is a pacakge you will need for minctensor.pl)

Note that this path definition is based on a full matlab installation, there might be complaints if you have a student version, for example. In this case, simply modify the path so as not to include all the extra toolboxes
