Details:

* case 1: class constructors; to replicate:
- unzip case1.zip
- cd case1
- edit ascript.m
- right-click on the call to aclass(); it'll produce a dialog box saying "file
case1/aclass does not exist"
+ solution: call the "which" function; indeed, entering the command:
    which aclass
find the file correctly in:
   'aclass' is a function from the file
C:address@hidden

* case 2: neighbor private functions; to replicate:
- unzip case2.zip
- cd case2
- edit private/afnc.m
- right-click on the call to bfnc(); it'll produce a dialog box saying "file
case2/bfnc does not exist"
+ solution: look in the same directory as the function where the edit call was
fired.
