Hi Matt, The attachement is a screenshot of the PGPLOT window that was left lying around from the last time I fired up athena. My question is about the large white-space gutter around the plot. Is there some way that I don't know about of reducing the size of that gutter? That is, can I expand the bounding box around the plot to be much closer to the size of the window? Also, what exactly does the reset argument to plot() do? And what is the most reliable way to get pgplot to *not* write a legend entry for a plot? Is it plot(a.x, a.y, key="")?
