Re: Legend help

[Ron Crummett]

That sounds like a good idea.  But is legend.m in the Octave 
distribution?  I downloaded 2.9.9 and unpacked it but didn't see a 
legend function.  I did find one in the Octave-forge release but I am 
using the most recent version of that, and have this problem.

If there are other methods I'm willing to try them, but may need some 
pointers on setting things up.
