% axcopy() - Copy a Matlab figure axis and its graphic objects to a new pop-up window 
%            using the left mouse button.
%
% Usage:  >> axcopy
%         >> axcopy(fig)
%         >> axcopy('noticks')
%         >> axcopy(fig, command)
%
% Notes:
%   1) Clicking the left mouse button on a Matlab figure axis copies the graphic objects 
%      in the axis to a new (pop-up) figure window. 
%   2) Option 'noticks' does not make x and y tickloabelmodes 'auto' in the pop-up.
%   2) The command option is an optional string that is evaluated in the new window
%      when it pops up. This allows the user to customize the pop-up display.
%   3) Deleting the pop-up window containing the copied axis leaves the selected axis
%      as the current graphic axis (gca).
