David,
sorry about the panic. I just found out about the /noerase keyword in
map_set. Since I write the headeline of the plot first, the routine created
a second page in an eps file, which you never ever get to display! So, I was
able to fix the problem. (I accidentially looked at the footer in gsview and
it said page 1/2; this gave me the hint.) Since my page was all white, I
thought that I was positioning wrong! I was barking up the wrong tree for
two hours. ...and as you can imagine, you can get pretty mad in such a long
time. I actually had to close my door not to upset my neighbors! :-)
