function y = forAllFilesInDir(startdir, filetypes, func, recursive, y, varargin)
% y = forAllFilesInDir(startdir, filetypes, func, recursive, y, varargin)
%
% Traverse directory structure, performing for each file of a specified filetype 
% an action defined by a function handle.
%
% INPUT:
% ------
% startdir ..... (string) Start directory. 
%                Any directory containing a file named "skip" will be skipped.
% filetypes .... (cell array of strings) File type filter, e.g. {'*.amc' '*.asf'} 
%                or {'*.*'} for all files
% func ......... (function handle) Worker function to be called for each file
%                The function designated by func will be passed the current complete 
%                filename (including pathname) as the first argument. If the parameter list 
%                varargin is nonempty, a single cell array with the current filename as the
%                first entry followed by the remaining parameters in varargin will be passed.
% recursive .... (boolean) Flag indicating whether recursive traversal is desired or not.
% y ............ (matrix or cell array) Initial value for output container. Usually empty ([]).
% varargin ..... (cell array of parameters) Parameters to be passed to func, see "func".
%
% OUTPUT:
% -------
% y ............ (matrix or cell array) Collected outputs of calls to func, vertically concatenated.
%
% EXAMPLE:
% --------
% y = forAllFilesInDir('S:\data_MoCap\MoCaDaDB\AMC',{'*.amc'},@getAMCLengthInSeconds,true,[]);
% y = forAllFilesInDir('S:\data_MoCap\MoCaDaDB\AMC',{'*.amc'},@getAMCLengthInSeconds,true,[],param1,...,paramn);
