## Return user input from a multi-textfield dialog box in a cell array of
## strings, or an empty cell array if the dialog is closed by the Cancel
## button.
##
## Inputs:
##
## @table @var
## @item prompt
## A cell array with strings labeling each text field.  This input is required.
##
## @item title
## String to use for the caption of the dialog.  The default is
## @qcode{"Input Dialog"}.
##
## @item rowscols
## Specifies the size of the text fields and can take three forms:
##
## @enumerate
## @item a scalar value which defines the number of rows used for each text field.
##
## @item a vector which defines the individual number of rows used for each text field.
##
## @item a matrix which defines the individual number of rows and columns used for each text field.  In the matrix each row describes a single text field.  The first column specifies the number of input rows to use and the second column specifies the text field width.
## @end enumerate
##
## @item defaults
## A list of default values to place in each text fields.  It must be a cell
## array of strings with the same size as @var{prompt}.
## @end table
