## Compute the convex hull of a 2-D or 3-D set of points.
##
## The hull @var{H} is a linear index vector into the original set of points
## that specifies which points form the enclosing hull.  For 2-D inputs only,
## the output is ordered in a counterclockwise manner around the hull.
##
## The input @var{x} may also be a matrix with two or three columns where the
## first column contains x-data, the second y-data, and the optional third
## column contains z-data.
##
## An optional final argument, which must be a string or cell array of strings,
## contains options passed to the underlying qhull command.
## See the documentation for the Qhull library for details
## @url{http://www.qhull.org/html/qh-quick.htm#options}.
## The default option is @code{@{"Qt"@}}.
##
## If @var{options} is not present or @code{[]} then the default arguments are
## used.  Otherwise, @var{options} replaces the default argument list.
## To append user options to the defaults it is necessary to repeat the
## default arguments in @var{options}.  Use a null string to pass no arguments.
##
## If the second output @var{V} is requested the volume of the enclosing
## convex hull is calculated.
