You could avoid matlab splash screen in normal launch by editing the matlab.desktop file with arguments matlab -nosplash. This is how you do the same when you open matlab engine from C/C++.
engOpen("matlab -nosplash")
While opening the matlab engine, give the above arguments.

Similar to Rstudio, Atom allowed you to run code segments on interactively rather than the entire script all at once. Is there a suitable Julia language IDE that is comparable to rstudio or Atom (juno) and allows for on-the-fly execution of code blocks because Atom is being phased out?
note: Thanks for answers in vs code to obtain interactive feature hold ctrl + return will run code.
Did you try the Microsoft Visual Studio Code ? You can check how to download and setup for Julia notebook in link below.

The Best, Wr
In Microsoft VS Code you can define code cells using magic comments (## or # %% or #- can play this role - the choice is yours):
##
(your code goes here)
##
A code cell is executed by pressing Alt + Enter while the cursor is inside the cell.
At the code below I pressed Alt + Enter while being in line 10.
The keyboard shortcut can be configured by selecting in the main menu View->Command Palette or pressing Ctrl + Shift + P:
VSCode. The Julia team was working on a Julia IDE called Juno but the website now says "Juno will receive no more feature updates. Development focus has shifted to the Julia extension for VSCode", and VSCode seems to be the recommended way to develop in julia.
The Julia extension for VSCode let's you run code block by just pressing shift+enter and it uses Revise.jl to make interactive sessions better. You can see plots and other outputs right in the editor, and recenty they have even added performance monitoring/benchmarking tools.
However, if you prefer notebook-style workflows, you can use Jupyter with Julia (and the IJulia kernel) but even better imo is Pluto, which is specifically made for Julia and has some nice features such as no hidden state.
Is it possible to run something similar to a Linux R console (which uses GNU Readline) from within a C++ program using RInside? The best option would be, if such a console would have all the nice features like the autocomplete.
The background:
I have a big solver, which has a RInside-based plugin for running small chunks of R code during a simulation. It would be nice if the user would be able to switch it to "interactive" mode and check things out as they go.
Notice:
1. I cannot just run R as a separate program, as I need it to see my objects and pointers from the main code. 2. I know about callbacks in RInside, but they do not provide any console-like capabilities.
Code: I doubt it will help, but here is my code now: https://github.com/llaniewski/TCLB/blob/RInside/src/Handlers/cbRunR.cpp.Rt
Is is possible to change the "Control + R" shortcut for sending scripts from the R text editor in the Windows GUI to the R console? I'd like to change it to "Control + Enter" to be more like the shortcut on my Mac. I do all my normal work on a Mac but have to use R on a PC to interface with some PC-only computational software.
Additional tidbits:
I'd rather not run an IDE on the PC if I don't have to, though perhaps this is the solution.
I use Rstudio on my Mac, but Rstudio does not get along with the PC software I'm running
The short answer is:
"No, there are no [built-in] ways to alter the menu shortcuts in the R Console"
I'm however gathering here -community wiki style- some of suggestions posted as remarks to this questions.
One approach may be to download the R source, hack it (see circa line 625 of src/gnuwin32/editor.c: ), and build the R binary anew (see the R for Windows FAQ for the tools you need to build from source). This seems to be a rather radical approach for the mere convenience of using an alternate keystroke sequence...
A similar approach may be to create an automatic patcher program which would patch the R executable, by locating the byte patterns surrounding the compiled logic of editor.c mentioned above and replacing it with a byte sequence for the desired keystroke. This solution may be sensitive to changes in the binaries, but also avoids the build process altogether...
An easier way to achieve this is probably by using an external text editor. Most modern editors have macros or configs that can be used, for example, to execute a source command in R for the selected text.
Customizing keyboard shortcuts is made available in Rstudio 0.99.644.

I was wondering if it is possible to work between matlab and R to plot some data. I have a script in matlab which generates a text file. From this I was wondering if it was possible to open R from within matlab and plot the data from this text file and then return to matlab.
For example, if I save a text file called test.txt, in the path 'E:\', and then define the path of R which in my case will be:
pathR = 'C:\Program Files\R\R-2.14.1\bin\R';
Is it possible to run a script already written in R saved under test1.R (saved in the same directory as test.txt) in R from matlab?
If you're working with Windows (from the path it looks like you are), you can use the MATLAB R-link from the File Exchange to pass data from Matlab to R, execute commands there, and retrieve output.
I don't use R so this is not something I have done but I see no reason why you shouldn't be able to use the system function to call R from a Matlab session. Look in the product documentation under the section Run External Commands, Scripts, and Programs for this and related approaches.
There are some platform-specific peculiarities to be aware of and you may have to wrestle a little with what is returned (though since you are planning to have R create a plot which is likely to be a side-effect rather than what is returned you may not). As ever this is covered quite well in the product's documentation
After using R(D)COM and Matlab R-link for a while, I do not recommend it. The COM interface has trouble parsing many commands and it is difficult to debug the code. I recommend using a system command from Matlab as described in the R Wiki. This also avoids having to install RAndFriends.
Is there an easy way to turn of all GUI elements in R and run it solely from the command line on OSX?
I'm trying to replicate the behavior of a remote linux terminal on my OSX machine. Thus plot() should just save a file and things like CRAN mirror selection should be text, not a Tk interface. I'm having trouble finding where to set this behavior.
I had this exact question and wanted a way to do it without changing my existing code. I usually run with graphics support but sometimes I'll run a script on the server for a larger dataset and then I just want the plots to be output somewhere automatically.
In Dirk's answer Ian Fellows gives the simple solution. On the command line in R type:
options(device=pdf)
And then any plots will be written to the current directly to an Rplots.pdf file.
If you want the files to not be plotted at all then use
options(device=NULL)
For the plots you can just direct the output to a file using the pdf() command (or png(), jpeg()...).
I don't own an OS X box, but did you try to unset the X11 environment variable DISPLAY:
DISPLAY="" R --vanilla
When I do that on Linux and query R for capabilties(), x11 comes up as FALSE as desired.
I don't run OSX but you could attempt to run R from the Terminal application, rather than the Mac OSX launcher, and see whether that runs as you need.
As Matti writes, you can send output to files using the following commands; but I don't know if that's really the substance of your question.
png("pngfile.png")
plot(foo)
title(main="bar")
dev.off()
So instead of the quartz graphical object, your output goes to the file.
Similarly, you can output what would normally appear in the terminal to a file.
sink("foo.file")
