function stdshade(amatrix,alpha,acolor,F,smth)
% usage: stdshading(amatrix,alpha,acolor,F,smth)
% plot mean and sem/std coming from a matrix of data, at which each row is an
% observation. sem/std is shown as shading.
% - acolor defines the used color (default is red) 
% - F assignes the used x axis (default is steps of 1).
% - alpha defines transparency of the shading (default is no shading and black mean line)
% - smth defines the smoothing factor (default is no smooth)
