Convert coordinate trace into array of strings.
s=char(t)
When applied to an imat_ctrace object, the CHAR function converts a coordinate trace t into an array of strings. Each row of the string array corresponds to one coordinate in t. All coordinate strings are padded with spaces to make the result a rectangular array.
>> t=imat_ctrace('5y', '6rx', '3z', '4x-')
t =
'5Y+'
'6RX+'
'3Z+'
'4X-'
>> s=char(t)
s =
5Y+
6RX+
3Z+
4X-
