function pvpmod(x)
% PVPMOD             - evaluate parameter/value pairs
% pvpmod(x), where x is a cell array with an even number of cells, assigns
% the value x(i+1) to the parameter defined by the string x(i) in the
% calling workspace. This is useful to evaluate  <varargin> contents in an
% mfile, e.g. to change default settings  of any variable initialized
% before pvpmod(x) is called. 
% Alternatively, <x> can be a structure where the fieldnames will become
% variable names and the field contents will become the contents of the new
% variables.
%
% Example
% assume x is a cell array of parameter/value pairs such as used to modify
% plots. Then
% x = {'fontname', 'helvetica', 'fontsize', 8};
% pvpmod(varargin) 
% will create variables with names created from x{1:2:end} with the
% corresponding values x{2:2:end} in the calling workspace 
%
