Two small modifications are necessary on thickpot.m; otherwise the translated function does not work properly. Modified file
-->unix_s('mkdir '+TMPDIR+'/airfoil')
-->translatepaths('airfoil',TMPDIR+'/airfoil')
------------ translation of airfoil/naca4.m -----------
------------ translation of airfoil/thickpot.m -----------
------------ translation of airfoil/tp_example.m -----------
-->unix_w('ls '+TMPDIR+'/airfoil') // list generated files
naca4.cat
naca4.sci
sci_naca4.sci
sci_thickpot.sci
sci_tp_example.sci
thickpot.cat
thickpot.sci
tp_example.cat
tp_example.sce
The execution of the tp_example demo may be then be donne as follow:
-->getf(TMPDIR+'/airfoil/naca4.sci') -->getf(TMPDIR+'/airfoil/thickpot.sci') -->exec(TMPDIR+'/airfoil/tp_example.sce')
And generates 3 figures. first figure is:
