Running code as previous version

Hi
I've been working on a fairly large program in Matlab 2010b and I need to demonstrate it on my supervisor's computer. He's running 2008 and wont update for various reasons -- recently I've made judicious use of the ~ feature as a input/output to a function because I think it's awesome but obviously it causes compatibility issues.
Is there a way I can run my code "as 2008" so the compiler picks up errors for me to quickly fix?
Alternatively can anyone think of a way around this, given that I can't use if(ver === etc. ) in method definitions?
Cheers
Leon

I'm pretty sure there is no quick fix. Can't you bring a laptop to the demonstration?

Not so quick fix.
Find in Files "~," and replace by the string, "dummy", or better do the same with a more powerful editor.
Then you might find there are other compatibility problems.

Yeah that's the answer I was dreading. I guess this is how old versions go about refusing to die.
