+## Draw a rectangular patch defined by @var{pos} and @var{curv}.
+## 
+## The variable @code{@var{pos}(1:2)} defines the lower left-hand corner of
+## the patch and @code{@var{pos}(3:4)} defines its width and height.  By
+## default, the value of @var{pos} is @code{[0, 0, 1, 1]}.
+##
+## The variable @var{curv} defines the curvature of the sides of the rectangle
+## and may be a scalar or two-element vector with values between 0 and 1.
+## A value of 0 represents no curvature of the side, whereas a value of 1
+## means that the side is entirely curved into the arc of a circle.
+## If @var{curv} is a two-element vector, then the first element is the
+## curvature along the x-axis of the patch and the second along y-axis.
+##
+## If @var{curv} is a scalar, it represents the curvature of the shorter of the
+## two sides of the rectangle and the curvature of the other side is defined
+## by
+##
+## @example
+## min (pos (1:2)) / max (pos (1:2)) * curv
+## @end example
+##
+## Additional property/value pairs are passed to the underlying patch command. 
+## 
+## If the first argument @var{hax} is an axes handle, then plot into this axis,
+## rather than the current axes returned by @code{gca}.
+##
+## The optional return value @var{h} is a graphics handle to the created
+## rectangle object.
