Not that I've found yet. I made one yesterday with LAYOUT and MARGIN,
which is now in sensible, normalized units instead of character
widths. Since MARGIN is relative to the plot window defined by LAYOUT,
I found using that combo much easier than defining everything from
scratch using POSITION. I rarely got good results with !P.MULTI/MARGIN
in direct graphics, so that's an improvement.

I wish they would have expanded TICKLAYOUT to simply suppress labels
but keep ticks, though. I still had to use blank TICKNAME arrays to
get that to work properly.
