finput

A faster ginput.

This function is a faster-than-ginput graphical input from mouse. It works by temporarily creating a duplicate set of axes atop the current axes, then calling ginput. Temporary axes are deleted upon termination of finput. If a set of axes contains only simple graphics objects, finput may offer no advantage over ginput. However, if you're trying to use ginput over a surface made of many elements, you may find that ginput is rather slow.
