Details:

The strread command with a "commentstyle" as either "shell", "c++" or "matlab"
does not work. If the "commentstyle" is "c"then it does work.

Example:
>> strread("Hello World! /* this is comment*/","%s", -1, "commentstyle","c")
ans =
{
  [1,1] = Hello
  [2,1] = World!
}
This works as expected.



>> strread("Hello World! % this is comment","%s", -1,
"commentstyle","matlab")
ans =
{
  [1,1] = Hello
  [2,1] = World!
  [3,1] = %
  [4,1] = this
  [5,1] = is
  [6,1] = comment
}
This is wrong. The comment after the % sign is still present in the answer.
It also goes wrong for the other options "shell" or "c++" where the comment
has to be removed until the End-Of-Line character.
