function SaveTemplate(path, filename)
%
% Abstract:
%    Save current figure template as an m-file function.
%
% Usage:
%    >> SaveTemplate([path], filename)
% 
%    where [<path>] is the directory path string of the location to store the
%    function by the name provided with <filename>.  If no [path] is specified
%    then the current path is taken.  '.m' is appended if only the prefix of
%    the name is given in <filename>.
%
%    A MATLAB script function is created from the skeletal elements
%    that make up a figure window, which reproduces the following:
%
%       o all the figure properties from the original figure
%       o all the axes and their properties 
%       o all text children of each of the axes and properties of each
%         text item.
%
%    The SaveAs function does not save any inforamation about any graphical
%    user interfaces actions, such as any button down functions or uicontrols
%    or uimenus and their call backs.  It also does not save any user data nor
%    does it retain xdata, ydata, zdata and hence does not plot lines,
%    patches, surfaces, and images.

% 
% History:
%    o 15 August 1995 created function SaveTemplate as part of Prmenu,
%          by Sara Haines.
