Hi,

I'd like to plot a star symbol in labels, i.e. xtitle=...
Do you know how to do that please?

Textoidl sounded to be a straightforward way to do that.
However, it seems that it does not support \star.

plot,dindgen(3),xtitle=textoidl('\star') will print \star instead of
the symbol.
However, if one plots an asterisk with \ast, it works fine...

I am a bit confused... Does textoidl miss some tex libraries? I have
the version Rel_2_1_2.

Help welcomed!
Cheers
Bing
