Problem 1917. click away

Write a function that clicks on a GUI button.

Description:

Some times one wishes to use Matlab to automate some time consuming repetitive process that requires filling fields or clicking buttons on the screen. Matlab offers a simple way to control the cursor position (e.g. set(0,'pointerlocation',...), but it is not so clear how one would perform mouse or keyboard clicks.

This problem creates a simple message box:

 msgbox('Click the OK button','')

which displays the above message and an 'OK' button.

Your function just needs to actually click on the OK button (or use equivalent keyboard shortcuts) to pass this problem. Simple, right?
