function theResult = rbrect(onMouseUp, onMouseMove, onMouseDown)

% rbrect -- Rubber rectangle tracking (Matlab-4 and Matlab-5).
%  rbrect('demo') demonstrates itself.
%  rbrect('onMouseUp', 'onMouseMove', 'onMouseDown') conducts interactive
%   rubber-rectangle tracking, presumably because of a mouse button press
%   on the current-callback-object (gcbo).  The 'on...' callbacks are
%   automatically invoked with: "feval(theCallback, theInitiator, theRect)"
%   after each window-button event, using the object that started this
%   process, plus theRect as [xStart yStart xEnd yEnd] for the current
%   rubber-rect.  The callbacks default to ''.  The coordinates of the
%   rectangle are returned as [xStart yStart xEnd yEnd].

% Private interface:
%  rbrect(1) is automatically called on window-button-motions.
%  rbrect(2) is automatically called on window-button-up.
