After installing MATLAB, you need to make sure you are able to build MEX-files. To do this you need a working compiler.

To install the toolbox run the script SMALLboxSetup.m from the MATLAB command prompt and follow the instructions. @SmallboxSetup.m@ is in the root SMALLbox directory. The SMALLbox installation involves the automatic download of several existing toolboxes. Due to the automatic download of toolboxes you must have an *active internet connection*.

Please note that within the toolboxes are several MEX components that must be compiled. If you do not already have MEX setup, run "mex -setup" or type "help mex" in the MATLAB command prompt.
