function a = circ_plot(alpha, format, formats, varargin)
%
% r = circ_plot(alpha, ...)
%   Plotting routines for circular data.
%
%   Input:
%     alpha     sample of angles in radians
%     [format		specifies style of plot
%                 pretty, histogram, density, []
%     [formats  standard matlab string for plot format (like '.r')]
%
%     The different plotting styles take optional arguments:
%         pretty:   fourth argument toggles between showing mean direction
%                     and not showing it
%         hist:     fourth argument determines number of bins/bin centers
%                   fifth argument determines whether normalized or count
%                     histogram is shown
%                   sixth argument toggles between showing mean direction
%                     and not showing it
%
%       All of these arguments can be left empty, i.e. set to [], so that
%       the default value will be used. If additional arguments are
%       supplied in the name-value style ('linewidth', 2, ...), these are
%       used to change the properties of the mean resultant vector plot.         
%
%   Output:
%     a         axis handle
%
%   Examples:
%     alpha = randn(60,1)*.4+pi/2;
%     figure
%     subplot(2,2,1)
%     circ_plot(alpha,'pretty','ro',true,'linewidth',2,'color','r'),
%     title('pretty plot style')
%     subplot(2,2,2)
%     circ_plot(alpha,'hist',[],20,true,true,'linewidth',2,'color','r')
%     title('hist plot style')
%     subplot(2,2,3)
%     circ_plot(alpha,[],'s')
%     title('non-fancy plot style')
