[Eeglablist] how is trial phase-sorting determined for a RANGE of frequencies?

[Scott Makeig]

Matthew -

In the erpimage() function, specifying a range of frequencies causes the
function to select a frequency in the given range with highest power in the
data (i.e., the peak frequency). This frequency is given when the power and
ITC time courses are also plotted below the ERP-image panel.
