leasqr question: how to turn off verbose

[Harbinson, Jeremy]

Hi,
When using leasqr.m from the optimisation toolkit a lot of information is 
presented on the display as leasqr does its thing - it looks like nearly 
everything that leasqr calculates is shown. I suspect that this is 'verbose' 
mode. Does anyone know how to turn this off? I have had a quick look at 
leasqr.m and 'verbose' is mentioned in several places, but to my eyes it is not 
clear how to disable this other than by hacking the script about a bit - which 
seems a bit crude and likely to have all sorts of undesired effects, especially 
if I do it.
thanks all the best,
Jeremy
