function poly2 = resamplePolyline(poly, n)
%RESAMPLEPOLYLINE Distribute N points equally spaced on a polyline.
%
%   RES = resamplePolyline(POLY, N)
%   Resample the input polyline POLY such that the resulting polyline RES
%   has N points. All points of RES belong to the initial polyline, but are
%   not necessarily vertices.
%
%   Example
%     poly = [0 10;0 0;20 0];
%     figure; drawPolyline(poly, 'b');
%     poly2 = resamplePolyline(poly, 10);
%     hold on; 
%     drawPolyline(poly2, 'bo');
%     axis equal; axis([-10 30 -10 20]);
