from Swap structure values into strings by Zachary Danziger
Finds fields of a structure in a string, and replaces them with the corresponding field values.

function sout = struct2strrep(strctr,sin)
% Swap structure values into strings

% sout = struct2strrep(strctr,sin)
%
% Takes the structure of strings and/or doubles (strctr) and replaces each
% occurrence of a field name in sin with the corresponding field value in
% strctr and returns the result in sout.
