Sorry for the twenty questions today but how does one go about labeling the minor tick
marks on a log axis (or a linear one for that matter)? Does such a simple thing require
use of XYOUTS? I've been futzing about with the X/YTICKS keywords which does the job but
makes the resulting axis spacings linear! MAN!

Bring your paint brush. :-)

Cheers,

P.S. Let's just say I don't mean the one in MacPaint.

I was referring to David's "if we'd use that lowest common denominator"
:-) I myself have no complains, by the way.

Cheers,
Pavel

P.S. I'll have to unexpectedly drop by the Coyote's construction site
with my G4 to get things straight, if not with IDL and Macs, at least
with the carpentry and those beers in the fridge, anyway :-)
