__________________________________________________________________________
NECESSARY ARGUMENT

data: cell array to present
__________________________________________________________________________
OPTIONAL ARGUMENTS

NOTE: These should be entered as ['name', value] argument pairs, which are parsed based on identifying case-insensitive matches to one of the argument names listed below. Partial matches are OK as long as only one match exists in the set of optional arguments. (For instance, 'fonts' matches only 'fontsize' below and is thus valid, whereas 'font' matches both 'fontsize' and 'fontname' and wll throw an error.) Each argument has a default value specified at the beginning of the function. To view the current defaults in the command window, run CELL2UITABLE with no arguments.

parent: handle to parent (creates new fig if empty)
colnames: cell array of column names
rownames: cell array of row names
rowstriping: 'on' | 'off'
fontsize: font size for table contents
fontname: font name for table contents
rearrangeablecols: 'on' | 'off'
oversizecolfactor: factor to mulitply auto-computed column width (useful for making all cell contents visible)
addsaveuimenu: logical flag to include/exclude uimenu for saving
editable: used to set 'ColumnEditable' property of uitable
backgroundcolor: uitable background color
foregroundcolor: uitable foreground color
emptypadsize: if >0, pads with that # empty editable rows/cols
