T = timer('Period',0.01,... %period
        'ExecutionMode','fixedRate',... %{singleShot,fixedRate,fixedSpacing,fixedDelay}
        'BusyMode','drop',... %{drop, error, queue}
        'TasksToExecute',100,...          
        'StartDelay',0,...
        'TimerFcn',@(src,evt)disp('.'),...
        'StartFcn',[],...
        'StopFcn',[],...
        'ErrorFcn',[]);
start(T);

So:

T = timer('Period',0.01,... %period
      'ExecutionMode','fixedRate',... %{singleShot,fixedRate,fixedSpacing,fixedDelay}
      'BusyMode','drop',... %{drop, error, queue}
      'TasksToExecute',100,...          
      'StartDelay',0,...
      'TimerFcn',@(src,evt)fprintf(1,'.'),...
      'StartFcn',@(src,evt)fprintf(1,'\n'),...
      'StopFcn',@(src,evt)fprintf(1,'\n'),...
      'ErrorFcn',[]);
start(T);
