David,

This is a valuable thing. Like many people I'm sure, I had a kluge I
had been using for this, but I look forward to shifting to something
more robust.

The rotating fill values and line-fill options are great!

I haven't actually put it through its paces, but looking through the
code I see this:

; Calculate the histogram.
histdata = Histogram(dataToHistogram, Binsize=binsize,
Max=Max(dataToHistogram),
Min=Min(dataToHistogram), _EXTRA=extra)

For generating a good histogram, you need to be able to specify the
MIN (and sometimes the MAX) values to HISTOGRAM(). Right now, if you
feed a MIN value into HISTOPLOT, it will choke because there is
already a MIN_VALUE keyword.

My "feature request" would be a means to have both PLOT min/max and
HIST min/max.

The application is, for example, a floating-point dataset where I need
an indication of how many zero values. So, for example, if my data
have three significant digits after the decimal, and a range of 0-100,
then I want:

h=histogram(data,min=-9.999,bin=10)
hist_plot,h,x_range=[0,100],/xstyle
