Hi,
So there is a second version, i clean cgs procedure so now it fit more the
codding standards. I also find one bug which is solved now.
In treelayout I also made some cleanup but I don't wont change the variable
name much.I know that it's bad to have CamelCase variable but these script
is closely conected with treeplot where are also these variables.
New version:

Why do you accept two preconditioners in cgs and then just multiply them together? The reason to pass two preconditioners in this manner is that if M1 and M2 are sparse then (M1 * M2) has a good chance of having a lot of fill in and so M1 * (M2 * res) will therefore be much faster than (M1 * M2) * res and use a lot less memory. If M1 and M2 are sparse then please don't multiply them together in this fashion, but rather do something like

  precon = [];
  if (nargin == 5)
    precon = M1;
  elseif (nargin > 5)
    if (isparse(M1) && issparse(M2)
      precon = @(x) M1 * (M2 * x);
    else
      precon = M1 * M2;
    endif
  endif

Apart from that I can't see any issues. If you are happy with the above change I'll commit these when I have the chance.

Cheers
David
