DOS In Translation
On systems with some language settings, the dos function doesn't encode properly the output string. For example, the accentued characters are misinterpreted with french settings. dosWithCharEncod mimics the dos function but returns the output string with the good character encoding.
Example :
>> command = ['tree "' fullfile(matlabroot, 'bin') '"'];
>> [status, cmdout] = dos(command, '-echo');
