%
% [vertex_coords, faces] = read_surf(fname)
% reads a the vertex coordinates and face lists from a surface file
% note that reading the faces from a quad file can take a very long
% time due to the goofy format that they are stored in. If the faces
% output variable is not specified, they will not be read so it 
% should execute pretty quickly.
