#' Edit 3D template
#'
#' An interactive function to remove landmarks from a 3D template file. 
#' 
#' The function edits a 'template.txt' file made by \code{\link{buildtemplate}}, which must be in the current
#' working directory, and which is overwritten. Use read.table("template.txt", header = T) to read in the template
#' first.
#' \subsection{Selection}{ 
#' Choosing which landmarks will be deleted involves landmark selection using a mouse in the rgl plot window. 
#' With a standard 3-button (PC) buildtemplate uses:
#' \enumerate{
#'  \item the RIGHT mouse button (primary) to choose points to be deleted,
#'  \item the LEFT mouse button (secondary) is used to rotate mesh, 
#'  \item the mouse SCROLLER (third/middle) is used to zoom in and out.
#' }
#' NOTE: Digitizing functions on MACINTOSH computers using a standard 3-button mice works as specified. Macs using platform 
#' specific single button mice, XQuartz must be configured: go to Preferences > Input > tick "Emulate three button mouse":
#' \enumerate{
#'  \item press button to rotate 3D mesh,
#'  \item press button while pressing COMMAND key to select points to be deleted,
#'  \item press button while pressing OPTION key to adjust mesh perspective.
#'  \item the mouse SCROLLER or trackpad two finger scroll is used to zoom in an out.
#'  }
#' }
#' @param template Matrix of template 3D coordinates
#' @param fixed Number of "fixed" landmark points (non surface sliding points)
#' @param n Number of points to be removed 
#' @return Function returns a matrix containing the x,y,z coordinates of the new template landmarks.
#' Function also writes to the working directory 'template.txt' containing the x,y,z coordinates of the updated template
