Note: Starting with GAMS version 38, GAMSTransfer Matlab is the preferred way to transfer data between Matlab and GAMS.
For GDXMRW,

However, Matlab checks the MATLABPATH environment variable on startup and prepends that to its search path, so setting this in your ''.bashrc'' or similar startup file should have the desired affect.
