function varargout = CMNG_gui(varargin)
%CMNG_GUI M-file for CMNG_gui.fig
% CMNG_GUI, by itself, creates a new CMNG_GUI or raises the existing
% singleton*.
%
% H = CMNG_GUI returns the handle to a new CMNG_GUI or the handle to
% the existing singleton*.
%
% CMNG_GUI('Property','Value',...) creates a new CMNG_GUI using the
% given property value pairs. Unrecognized properties are passed via
% varargin to CMNG_gui_OpeningFcn. This calling syntax produces a
% warning when there is an existing singleton*.
%
% CMNG_GUI('CALLBACK') and CMNG_GUI('CALLBACK',hObject,...) call the
% local function named CALLBACK in CMNG_GUI.M with the given input
% arguments.
%
% *See GUI Options on GUIDE's Tools menu. Choose "GUI allows only one
% instance to run (singleton)".
