Description
            This implementation fixes major limitations known and reported for years.

It can be used in Scilab >=5.5.0 on Windows, Linux and Mac OS.

FEATURES ADDED W.R.T. SCILAB NATIVE VERSION
-------------------------------------------
 - in regular expression mode, all occurrences are replaced: fixes the bug 4276
 - a 'ro' flag is added to still enable replacing only once in regexp mode.
 - group replacement is supported: fixes the bug 9123
 - multiple Pattern/Replace pairs can be replaced: fixes the bug 6145
 - hypermatrix of text is accepted
 - examples run with strsubt() are added

These extensions are fully compatible with the existing strsubst().
A related SEP (Scilab Enhancement Proposal) has been posted here:
http://bugzilla.scilab.org/show_bug.cgi?id=4276#c9
in order to include them in the Scilab distribution.

EXAMPLES OF USAGE: Enter "strsubst" without parameters
------------------------------------------------------

-->strsubst()
>> sc = ['Hello' 'Hólà' 'ALLO' 'Γεια σας'];

!HeLLo  HóLà  ALLO  ΓειA σAς  !

// Regular expression (regexp), 
// "ro"= Replace Once: only the first match is replaced:
>> strsubst('abcABCabc', '/[^^]a/i', '*', "ro")
 
 ab*BCabc   

// NEW: Regexp, all occurrences replaced. /i =case insensitive. /imxs supported
