SPLITFUNCTIONS takes a file with many functions in it and splits those functions up into as many files, entitled with the function names

SPLITFUNCTION(FILENAME) splits the file into parts and puts those parts
in the same directory as FILENAME
SPLITFUNCTION(FILENAME,TARGETDIR) splits the file, putting parts in
TARGETDIR
SPLITFUNCTION(FILENAME,TARGETDIR,DOWAITBAR) same as above but uses
waitbar to show progress.

It will turn
<foo.m starts>
function a
...
function [a,b] = b
...
function [a,b] = c(d,e)
....
<foo.m ends>
In to:
<a.m starts>
function a
...
<a.m ends>
<b.m starts>
function [a,b] = b
...
<b.m ends>
<c.m starts>
function [a,b] = c(d,e)
....
<c.m ends>
