  creates the surface of an elliptic cylinder
 
  [handle] = SW_ELLCYLINDER(r1,r2,R,N,{v1, v2, cap})
 
  Input:
 
  r1    Coordinates of the center of the base ellipse, dimensions are [3 1].
  r2    Coordinates of the center of the top cylinder, dimensions are [3 1].
  R     Minor and major radius of the ellipse, dimensions are [2 1].
  N     Number of points of the surface mesh.
  v1,v2 Optional nomal vectors pointing along the minor and major radius
        vector, dimensions are [3 1].
  cap   Optional input, if true the elliptical cylinder is closed with
        caps. Default is false.
