+function [q,p]=prop(q1,abcd,varargin)
+% Propagates a Gaussian beam. [q,p]=prop(q1,abcd <,[l,m],p1>);
+%--------------------------------------------------------------------
+% Propagates a Gaussian beam with complex radius of curvature q1
+% and amplitude factor p1 (optional), according to the ABCD matrix
+% supplied.
+%
+% Returns the new complex beam radius q=(A*q1+B)/(C*q1+D) and the 
+% new amplitude factor p = 1/(A+B/q1)^(1+l+m) by which the field is
+% multiplied. (See eqn 4.7.30 in Principles of Lasers by O. Svelto.)
+% If q1 is a vector q and p will be vectors of the same size.
+%
+% For a Hermite Gaussian l,m are the mode designators.
+% For a Laguerre Gaussian l=2p and m is the usual m.
+%
+% SYNTAX: [q,p]=prop(q1,abcd <,[l,m],p1>);
+%           <...> indicates optional arguments
