%@deftypefn {Function} assert_L
%@verbatim
%ASSERT_L  Validate lattice and window size.
%   Usage:  [b,N,L]=assert_L(Ls,Lwindow,L,a,M,callfun);
%
%   Input parameters:
%         Ls      : Length of signal (see below).
%         Lwindow : Length of window.
%         L       : Specified length of transform (may be [])
%         a       : Length of time shift.
%         M       : Number of modulations.
%         callfun : Name of calling function.
%   Output parameters:
%         b       : Length of frequency shift.
%         N       : Number of translations.
%         L       : Transform length.         
%
%  Calculate a minimal transform length, or verify a user specified
%  input length.
%
%  The routine assumes that a and M has already been checked. use
%  assert_squarelat for this.
%
%  If the window length is not yet determined, it is safe to pass Lwindow=0
