function varargout = drawEdge(varargin)
%DRAWEDGE Draw an edge given by 2 points
%   
%   drawEdge(x1, y1, x2, y2);
%   draw an edge between the points (x1 y1) and  (x2 y2).
%
%   drawEdge([x1 y1 x2 y2]) ;
%   drawEdge([x1 y1], [x2 y2]);
%   specify data either as bundled edge, or as 2 points
%
%   The function supports 3D edges:
%   drawEdge([x1 y1 z1 x2 y2 z2]);
%   drawEdge([x1 y1 z1], [x2 y2 z2]);
%   drawEdge(x1, y1, z1, x2, y2, z2);
%
%   Arguments can be single values or array of size [N*1]. In this case,
%   the function draws multiple edges.
%
%   H = drawEdge(..., OPT), with OPT being a set of pairwise options, can
%   specify color, line width and so on...
%
%   H = drawEdge(...) return handle(s) to created edges(s)

%   HISTORY
%   19/02/2004 add support for arrays of edges.
%   31/03/2004 change format of edges to [P1 P2] and variants.
%   28/11/2004 add support for 3D edges
%   01/08/2005 add support for drawing options
%   31/05/2007 update doc, and code makeup
%   03/08/2010 re-organize code
