Do something to waves in marquee

This code permits the user to select a subset of waves in a graph by drawing a marquee around them, then choosing a command from the marquee menu that is executed on that subset of waves. The example here highlights the selected waves, but lots of other possibilities exist, such as deleting the waves, averaging them, hiding them, ....
