lmitool - tool for solving linear matrix inequations

### Calling Sequence

  `lmitool()`
  ``
  `lmitool(filename)`
  ``
  `txt=lmitool(probname,varlist,datalist)`

### Parameters

- `filename` : a string referring to a `.sci` function
- `probname` : a string containing the name of the problem
- `varlist` : a string containing the names of the unknown matrices (separated by commas if there are more than one)
- `datalist` : a string containing the names of data matrices (separated by commas if there are more than one)
- `txt` : a string providing information on what the user should do next

### Description

`lmitool()` or `lmitool(filename)` is used to define interactively a LMI problem. In the non interactive mode, `txt=lmitool(probname,varlist,datalist)` generates a file in the current directory. The name of this file is obtained by adding `.sci` to the end of `probname` . This file is the skeleton of a solver function and the corresponding evaluation function needed by `lmisolver` .
