OK, when I tried it *after* the plot, the lines got
inserted just before the last character in the PostScript
stream that describes the plot. It didn't appear to
do any harm there, but it seems a weird place for it
to go.

How do you use this information? Do you have routines
that can examine your PostScript files to retrieve
this information?

Cheers,

David
