Hi,

I'd like to plot two subsections from the x-axis straight after
eachother, say from 0 - 3 and from 8 - 14, ignorring the gap from 3 to
8 completly.

I have the label (wavelength) information as index in wl with 157
elements

plot, wl, lib[*,0]

is it possible to force the plot somehow to ignor plotting and
labeling 3 to 8 on the x-axis

Thanks
Andreas
