function h1 = imageplot(M,str, a,b,c)

% imageplot - diplay an image and a title
%
% Example of usages:
%   imageplot(M);
%   imageplot(M,title);
%   imageplot(M,title,1,2,1);   % to make subplot(1,2,1);
%
%   imageplot(M,options);
%
%   If you want to display several images:
%       imageplot({M1 M2}, {'title1', 'title2'});
