function saveNEVSpikes(spikeStruct, newFileName)

% saveNEVSpikes
% 
% Allows the user to save a modified version of the spike waveforms into a 
% NEV file. This can be very useful for those who want to save MATLAB
% sorted or rethresholded NEV data back into the NEV file. It also re-saves
% the other data in the original NEV file into the new NEV. A
%
% Use saveNEVSpikes(spikeStruct, newFileName)
%
%   spikeStruct: The structure containing the spike data needed to be
%                saved. The structure format must match the one that 
%                openNEV outputs.
%                spikeStruct.TimeStamp: contains all the timestamps
%                spikeStruct.Electrode: contains all the electrode #s
%                spikeStruct.Unit: contains all the sorted unit #s
%                spikeStruct.Waveform: Spike waveforms, containing 48 data
%                                      points
%
%   newFileName: The file name of the new NEV file.
%                DEFAULT: User will be prmpted for a file name.
%
%   Example 1:
%   saveNEVSpikes(spikeStruct, 'sortedNEV';
%
%   In the example above, the user will be prompted to select a NEV file.
%   The data stored in spikeStruct will be saved into sortedNEV alongside 
%   the data in the user-selected NEV file. The new NEV will be saved as
%   sortedNEV.nev
