GEN_DROG_LINE Mouse-driven drogue input coordinate generator
   GEN_DROG_LINE - Mouse-driven drogue input coordinate generator 
                   prompts the user to draw a line on the current 
                   axes and returns an array of coordinates suitable 
                   for a drogue initialization file.

  INPUT:  nd     - number of drogues along the line.
          z      - the depth to assign to the horizontal drogue
                   locations.  
          end_points - optional 4x1 vector defining the end points of
                       the sampling lines.  
                       The 4 values are [X1 Y1 X2 Y2], and if defined
                       they take precedence over the mouse-driven facility.

 OUTPUT:  outmat - if z is supplied as input, outmat is a (nx*ny*length(z)) by 3 
                   array of 3-D starting locations
                   if z is NOT supplied as input, outmat is a (nx*ny) by 2
                   array of 2-D starting locations

 Call as: outmat=gen_drog_line(nd)
      OR: outmat=gen_drog_line(nd,z)
      OR: outmat=gen_drog_line(nd,z,end_points)
