Hi Quentin,

I think hypermat are just mlist, so the error message makes sense.
But you are right, this is a bug:
- either you should be able to save any kind of variable with savematfile,
- or the help page 'help savematfile' should mention this limitation for 
hypermatrices (I checked, it does not).

Could you report a bug on bugzilla with a small test script that 
triggers the bug?

As for you problem, can't you do it the other way round?
Save your hypermat in the new *.sod format (which is a hdf5 container) 
and open it with matlab using the hdf5 import functions that are usually 
quite good?

Hopes it helps,

Antoine
