set xlab

set xlab option

Controls the format of X-axis tick mark labels. The option argument may be one of the following:  

on        labeled tick marks are drawn with the default characteristics
off       labeled tick marks are not drawn
format    gives a C-language template for conversion of the label value to a string 

Usage Notes

1. If the X axis represents longitude, then the default behavior is to append an "E" or "W" to all tick mark labels depending on the hemisphere.

   
   

2. Changes to the X-axis tick mark labels are reset by clear, but not display.

Examples

1. This command would cause all X-axis labels to have 2 digits after the decimal point:
   set xlab %.2f
