Kindly watch for linewraps...

x=[0,0,0,0,44.8,75.7,64.1,70.4,73.9,74.2,68.1,48.9,44.0,35.7 ,27.6,12.3,7.3,0]
y=[-85,-75,-65,-55,-45,-35,-25,-15,-5,5,15,25,35,45,55,65,75 ,85]
title='title'
label='line1!Cline2'
plot, x, y, yrange = [-90, 90], /ystyle, /xstyle, ytickformat = "(a1)",
title = title, xtitle = label, xrange = [0, 100], ticklen = -0.03

If ticklen is +0.03, all is fine, but setting it negative (to get the
ticks outside the box) and the second line of the xtitle is lost.

related question (in that involves plots), is there a way to draw the box
around the plot (the boss likes that) but *not* draw the tickmarks on the
non-primary lines of the box?

Thanks!
Bruce
