function saveas( h, name, format )
%SAVEAS Save Figure or model to desired output format.
%   SAVEAS(H,'FILENAME')
%   Will save the Figure or model with handle H to file called FILENAME. 
%   The format of the file is determined from the extension of FILENAME.
%
%   SAVEAS(H,'FILENAME','FORMAT')
%   Will save the Figure or model with handle H to file called FILENAME. 
%   in the format specified by FORMAT. FORMAT can be the same values as
%   extensions of FILENAME. The FILENAME extension does not have to be 
%   the same as FORMAT.  Given FORMAT overrides FILENAME extension.
%
%   Valid options for FORMAT are:
%
%   'fig'  - save figure to a single binary FIG-file.  Reload using OPEN. 
%   'm'    - save figure to binary FIG-file, and produce callable
%            M-file for reload.
%   'mfig' - same as M.
%   'mmat' - save figure to callable M-file as series of creation commands 
%            with param-value pair arguments.  Large data is saved to MAT-file.
%            Note: MMAT Does not support some newer graphics features. Use
%                  this format only when code inspection is the primary goal.
%                  FIG-files support all features, and load more quickly. 
%
%   Allowable options also include devices allowed by PRINT.
%
%   Examples:
%
%   Write current figure to MATLAB fig file
%
%       saveas(gcf, 'output', 'fig')
%
%   Write current figure to windows bitmap file
%
%       saveas(gcf, 'output', 'bmp')
