Does anybody have any routines that can be called to replace the default
axis tick labeling on simple PLOTs? The default selection of the number of
major/minor ticks and their labeling leaves quite a bit to be desired. On
rare occasion I have gotten a plot with an axis (either x or y) with a
SINGLE LABELED TICK and axes with only 2 labeled ticks are fairly
frequent. It is also common to get no minor ticks at all.
There is a similar problem with the assignment of levels to be CONTOURed.
The levels selected for contouring seem to be the same with or without the
use of /follow.
The detailed control over the plot apearance which can make for a nice
final product is possible but this gets to be quite a nuisence when you
need to do it on your first look at new data.
And yes, I have asked RSI about this, even captured some examples complete
with programs and minimal datasets to email them. But my personal generic
io proceedure to read_file_of_colums seems to have portability problems
they couldn't overcome. (I had thought it should work on any unix machine
but I only have the one to verify it with.)
