imwrite2

PURPOSE ^

Similar to imwrite, except follows a strict naming convention.

SYNOPSIS ^

function I = imwrite2( I, multflag, imagei, path, name, ext, ndigits, varargin )

DESCRIPTION ^

 Similar to imwrite, except follows a strict naming convention.

 Wrapper for imwrite that writes file to the filename:
   imagename = [path name int2str2(i,ndigits) '.' ext];
 Using imwrite: 
   imwrite( I, imagename, writeparams )

 If I represents a stack of images, the ith image is written to:
   imagenamei = [path name int2str2(i+imagei-1,ndigits) '.' ext];
   
 If I=[], then imwrite2 will attempt to read images from disk instead.

 multflag controls how I is interpreted.  If multflag==0, then I is intrepreted as a
 single image, otherwise I is interpreted as a stack of images, where I(:,:,...,j)
 represents the jth image (see feval_arrays for more info).

 If the directory specified by 'path' does not exist, imwrite2 attempts to create it.
 
 INPUTS
   I           - image or array or cell of images (if [] reads else writes)
   multflag    - set to 1 if I represents a stack of images
   imagei      - first image number
   path        - directory where images are
   name        - base name of images
   ext         - extension of image 
   ndigits     - number of digits for filename index
   writeparams - [varargin] additional parameters to imwrite

 OUTPUTS
   I           - image or images (read from disk if input I=[])

 EXAMPLE
   load images; clear IDXi IDXv t video videos;
   imwrite2( images(:,:,1), 0, 0, 'rats/', 'rats', 'png', 5 );    % writes first frame
   imwrite2( images(:,:,1:5), 1, 0, 'rats/', 'rats', 'png', 5 );  % writes first 5 frames
   images2 = imwrite2( [], 1, 0, 'rats/', 'rats', 'png', 5 );     % reads first 5 frames
   images2 = feval_images(@(x) x,{},'rats/','rats','png',0,4,5);  % reads first 5 frames
