+% zeroMQrr provides a simple wrapper around the zeromq library with a
+% request->response scenario in mind
+%
+% Usage:
+% 
+%      zeroMQrr('Command',...);
+%
+%      zeroMQrr('Send',url, request, [blocking=0]);
+%           When blocking is true, zeroMQrr waits for and returns the response
+%             [response, dialogue]=zeroMQrr('Send',url, request, 1);
+%             When blocking is 0 (default) zeroMQrr adds the request to a queue and returns the time the request was added to that queue. See 'GetResponses'
+%             [timeRequestAdded]=zeroMQrr('Send',url, request, 0);
+%             
+%      dialogue = zeroMQrr('GetResponses', [wairForEmptyQueue=1])   
+%             Retirieves responses collected for requests send in non blocking mode. If wairForEmptyQueue>0, the function waits for the last queued request to get a response.
+%             dialogue is a struct with the fields: request, response, timeRequestAdded, timeRequestSent, timeResponeRecieved
+%             At the moment this cannot get filtered by the url of the request yet.
+%             
+%      zeroMQrr('CloseAll')   
+%             closes all open sockets and the queue thread if open.
+%        
+% 
+%      zeroMQrr('CloseThread')
+%             closes the queue thread if open
+%             
+%      url = zeroMQrr('StartConnectThread', url)
+%             This function is not neccessary and for backward compatability only. It simply returns the url of the input as previous versions required a handle instead of the url if the 'Send' command
+%            
+%   currently only tested on OSX. To compile you need the zeromq library
+%   installed (e.g. using brew on OSX) and the libraries set correctly in
+%   compile_matlab_wrapper
