function m_track(lon,lat,varargin);
% M_TRACK Draw a trackline on a map
%
%	M_TRACK draws navigation tracklines on a map. The trackline
%	itself is optionally annontated with tick marks, time labels, and
%	date labels.
%
%	M_TRACK (lon,lat) draws just a plain line. lon&lat are in decimal
%	degrees, +N, -S, +E, -W.
%
%	M_TRACK (lon,lat,navtimes) draws a line, with tick marks every
%	hour, time labels every four hours, and date labels every twelve
%	hours. navtimes is in MatLab "serial date numbers," representing the
%	number of days since January 1, 0000. By convention, ticks and 
%	time labels are drawn on the starboard side, dates on the port.
%
%	M_TRACK (lon,lat,navtime, 'string', property/value pairs) can be
%	used to change tick marks, time and date label properties. Allowable
%	combinations are:
%
%	'ticks'		tickmark interval in minutes, default=60
%	'times'		time label interval in minutes, default=240 (4hrs)
%	'dates'		date label interval in minutes, default=720 (12hrs)
%	'timef[ormat]'	format of time string, see datestr(), default=15
%	'datef[ormat]'	format of date string, see datestr(), default=2
%	'color'		color of track/labels, default is black
%	'linew[idth]'	width of trackline, default is current
%	'lines[tyle]'	style of line, default is solid line
%	'fonts[ize]'	size of font, default is current
%	'fontn[ame]'	name of font, default is current
%       'clip'		'on' or 'off' (clipping to map)
%	'orien[t]'	label orientation, 'true' or 'upright', default='true'
%
%	time labels need to be whole multiples of tick intervals. date
%	labels need to be whole multiples of time labels. using '0' for
%	any value will tick/label all points. using a negative number
%	will suppress tick/label.

% m_track.m, Peter Lemmond, peter@whoi.edu 13/Nov/98
%
% RP - 14/Nov/98 - corrected angle for first label, added tags, added CLIP
%                  options, made labels always face upwards
% PL - 04/Dec/98 - added orientation option, to allow labels to either
% 		   always follow heading ('true') or to always face upwards
%		   ('upright'). changed quite a bit internally to make
%		   faster and fix some bugs
%    - 23/Aug/01 - if numinputs = 2 an extra initialization statement
%                  was needed (thanks to Dan Lowen for this fix).
