function coef=spreadfun(T)
%SPREADFUN Spreading function of a matrix
% Usage: c=spreadfun(T);
%
% SPREADFUN(T) computes the spreading function of the operator T,
% represented as a matrix. The spreading function represent the operator T*
% as a weighted sum of time-frequency shifts. See the help text for
% SPREADOP for the exact definition.
