GitHubLocation.m

% DROPBOX  Return root path of local Dropbox folder
%    PATH = DROPBOX() returns the path.
%    PATH = DROPBOX(RELATIVE) returns the full path to a file or folder
%    relative to the root Dropbox path.
%
% DROPBOX keeps track of the location of your Dropbox folder across
% different machines and operating systems. On first-time use, it asks the
% user to locate the local Dropbox folder through a GUI window. The m-file
% then updates itself to recognize different machines through their
% hostname, so that only one copy of the file is needed (that you can keep
% in your Dropbox). DROPBOX does not rely on MATLAB preferences so it is
% robust across MATLAB versions and after fresh installs.
%
% Because the file edits itself, user changes are not recommended; the name
% of the file can be changed, however.
