Re: how to avoid title in plot

[Joerg Ungethuem]

Hi,
as far as I know there are at least 2 possibilities:
1) you can use the gnuplot "set" via octave as "gset". So

octave:>> gset nokey
octave:>> plot(...)

should work. 
BTW: in  gnuplot the "title" means the title on top of the  
plot, which is probably not what you mean. 


2) You might mant to set your own labels:
octave:>> gset key
octave:>> x=linspace(-2*pi,2*pi);
octave:>> s=sin(x); c=cos(x); 
octave:>> plot(x, s, ";sin curve;", x, c, ";cos curve;")

Whatch out for the ";"!

To set title and labels use the following:
octave:>> title("My plot")
octave:>> xlabel("X-Axis")                 
octave:>> ylabel("Y-Axis")                                 
octave:>> grid("on")                                 
octave:>> plot(x, s, ";sin curve;", x, c, ";cos curve;")                        
         
octave:>>
