Yes, it crashes and that's not good (thanks for catching this) but although I'm a bit rusty with GMTMEX this is not a valid syntax:

gmt(['pstext -R -J -O >> ' outfn '.ps'], txt(1, :));

it should instead be

R = gmt('record', [110 30], 'CIRCULAR');       % Need to create a text structure to pass to pstext
gmt(['pstext -R -J -O >> ' outfn '.ps'], R);

and with it, your example works.

my matlab plot code comes from https://www.pygmt.org/latest/gallery/lines/vector_styles.html#sphx-glr-gallery-lines-vector-styles-py.
