## Display the tetrahedrons defined in the m-by-4 matrix @var{T} as 3-D patches.
##
## @var{T} is typically the output of a Delaunay triangulation
## of a 3-D set of points.  Every row of @var{T} contains four indices into
## the n-by-3 matrix @var{X} of the vertices of a tetrahedron.  Every row in
## @var{X} represents one point in 3-D space. 
##
## The vector @var{C} specifies the color of each tetrahedron as an index
## into the current colormap.  The default value is 1:m where m is the number
## of tetrahedrons; the indices are scaled to map to the full range of the
## colormap.  If there are more tetrahedrons than colors in the colormap then
## the values in @var{C} are cyclically repeated.
## 
## Calling @code{tetramesh (@dots{}, "property", "value", @dots{})} passes all
## property/value pairs directly to the patch function as additional arguments.
##
## The optional return value @var{h} is a vector of patch handles where each
## handle represents one tetrahedron in the order given by @var{T}. 
## A typical use case for @var{h} is to turn the respective patch "visible"
## property "on" or "off".
##
## Type @code{demo tetramesh} to see examples on using @code{tetramesh}.
