%GETUSER Return the user field of a mapping % % USERFIELD = GETUSER(W,FIELD) % % INPUT % W Mapping % FIELD Character string: name of structure field of USER field of W. % % OUTPUT % USERFIELD Requested field % % If FIELD is is the empty string ('') the entire user field is returned. % % If the requested field does not exist USERFIELD = []; % % Note the the USER field of mappings was originally intended for a user % defined description of mappings. Later its usage was extended to a field % for storing general information on mappings. For that reason 'old' % mappings without a structure in the user field are transformed such that % this information is stored in a subfield USER in the user field. It can % be retrieved by GETUSER(W).
