##
## Create a uipushtool object and return a handle to it.
##
## uipushtools are buttons that appear on a figure toolbar. The button is created with a border that
## is shown when the user hovers over the button. An image can be set using the cdata property.
##
## If @var{parent} is omitted then a uipushtool for the current figure is
## created. If no figure is available, a new figure is created first.  If a figure is
## available, but does not contain a uitoolbar, a uitoolbar will be created.
##
## If @var{parent} is given then a uipushtools is created on the @var{parent} uitoolbar. 
## 
## Any provided property value pairs will override the default values of the created 
## uipushtool object.
##
## Examples:
##
## @example
## @group
## % create figure without a default toolbar
## f = figure ("toolbar", "none");
## % create empty toolbar
## t = uitoolbar (f);
## % create a 19x19x3 black square
## img=zeros(19,19,3);
## % add pushtool button to toolbar
## b = uipushtool (t, "cdata", img);
## @end group
## @end example
