Synopsis:

  f=statusbar(title,f)
     Reset an existing status/progress bar or create a new
     if the handle became invalid.

  f=statusbar(done,f)
     For 0 < done < 1, update the progress bar and the elap-
     sed time. Estimate the remaining time until completion.
     On user abort, return an empty handle.

     Remove all status/progress bars.

     f=statusbar('Wait some seconds ...');
     for p=0:0.01:1
        pause(0.2);
        if isempty(statusbar(p,f))
           break;
        end;
     end;
     delete(f);
