+## Plots the mesh defined by a function. @var{f} is a string, inline
+## function or function handle with two arguments defining the function. By 
+## default the plot is over the domain @code{-2*pi < @var{x} < 2*pi} and
+## @code{-2*pi < @var{y} < 2*pi} with 60 points in each dimension. 
+##
+## If @var{dom} is a two element vector, it represents the minimum and maximum
+## value of both @var{x} and @var{y}. If @var{dom} is a four element vector,
+## then the minimum and maximum value of @var{x} and @var{y} are specify
+## separately.
+##
+## @var{n} is a scalar defining the number of points to use in each dimension.
+##
+## If three functions are passed, then plot the parametrically defined 
+## function @code{[@var{fx} (@var{s}, @var{t}), @var{fy} (@var{s}, @var{t}), 
+## @var{fz} (@var{s}, @var{t})]}. 
+##
+## If the argument 'circ' is given, then the function is plotted over a disk
+## centered on the middle of the domain @var{dom}.
+##
+## The optional return value @var{h} provides a list of handles to the 
+## the parts of the vector field (body, arrow and marker).
+##
+## @example

+## f = @@(x,y) sqrt(abs(x .* y)) ./ (1 + x.^2 + y.^2);
