  Description     : Octave/Matlab mex generator

MWrap is an interface generation system in the spirit of SWIG or matwrap. From
a set of augmented MATLAB script files, MWrap will generate a MEX gateway to
desired C/C++ and FORTRAN function calls and MATLAB function files to access
that gateway. MWrap takes care of the details of converting to and from
MATLAB's data structures, allocating and freeing temporary storage, handling
object upcasts (even in the presence of multiple inheritance), and catching C++
exceptions. The gateway functions also work with recent versions of Octave.
