I have a few strings that are displayed onto the command window to tell the user of my program some instructions and information. I want all of these strings centered in the comman window. Ive tried afew things but to no avail. Anyone have any suggestions?

Msg = 'hello';
CmdWinSize = get(0, 'CommandWindowSize');
Height = CmdWinSize(1); % Thanks, Friedrich! [EDITED]
Width = CmdWinSize(2);
clc;
fprintf(repmat('\n', floor(Height / 2) - 1);
fprintf(blanks(floor(Width - length(Msg)) / 2));
fprintf('%s\n', Msg);

Thanks, Friedrich.
I do not have access to Matlab currently, such that the code is not tested.
