One of these days I'll learn all about the iTools. So far, they don't
seem
all that useful. Awkward user interface, mostly. For now, I have one
use
for them.

I'd like to make it possible for my users to use the iPlot tool for
annotating
and printing plots of the data we collect. I've figured out how to
call iPlot
when required and how to use overplot to add additional data to the
plots.
What I don't know how to do is to add text to the plots (not using the
awkward user interface, but from my program) so that the plots I
present
my users within iPlot have the same information on them as the direct
graphics plots they see normally. A plot title that wasn't the title
of the
window the plot is in, for instance. Some interesting results that
were
computed as text below the plot, that sort of thing.

So, in as few words as possible, can someone tell me how to annotate a
plot I've made by calling iPlot from within my program?

Sorry if this is a trivial problem, but I haven't figured it out.
