%
% NRBREVERSE: Reverse the evaluation directions of a NURBS geometry.
% 
% Calling Sequence:
% 
%   rnrb = nrbreverse(nrb);
%   rnrb = nrbreverse(nrb, idir);
% 
% INPUT:
% 
%   nrb		: NURBS data structure, see nrbmak.
%   idir        : vector of directions to reverse.
%
% OUTPUT:
% 
%   rnrb	: Reversed NURBS.
% 
% Description:
% 
%   Utility function to reverse the evaluation direction of a NURBS
%   curve or surface.
