[Eeglablist] Extracting Phase Angle from ITC Matrix

Dear Zach and Indir,

I would recommend to use the function timefreq instead of phasecoher  
to compute single-trial wavelet decompositions (and ITC).
Phasecoher is an old function that will be retired soon (and replaced  
by timefreq).

Best,

Arno
