% SEARCH selects AOs that match the given name.
%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
%
% DESCRIPTION: SEARCH selects AOs that match the given name using a regular
%              expression (help regexp).
%
% CALL:        b = search(a, 'foo')  % get all AOs from <a> called 'foo'
%              b = search(a, 'foo*') % get all AOs from <a> with a name like 'foo'
%              b = search(a, pl)
%
%
% This function returns the handles of the AOs that match the regular
% expression. No object copying is done.
