+function mesh = AddPML( mesh, numcells )
+%mesh = AddPML( mesh, numcells )
+%
+% Adds equidistant cells to the specified directions of the simulation
+% area. This is used to put a PML (perfectly matched layer) absorber there.
+% Remember: this function only adds space for the PML, the boundary
+% conditions need to be set correctly to really add PML material.
+%
+% The mesh is sorted and duplicate lines are removed.
+%
+% input:
+%   mesh:     mesh structure
+%     .x:     1xn vector (lines in x direction)
+%     .y:     1xn vector (lines in y direction)
+%     .z:     1xn vector (lines in z direction)
+%   numcells: 1x6 vector (xmin,xmax,ymin,ymax,zmin,zmax) with number of
+%             cells to add to this direction
+%
+% output:
+%   mesh:     new mesh
