% AXIS AXIS Setup Axis Behavior
% 
% Usage
% 
% Control the axis behavior.  There are several versions of the
% axis command based on what you would like the axis command to
% do.  The first versions set scalings for the current plot.
% The general syntax for its use is
% 
%   axis([xmin xmax ymin ymax zmin zmax cmin cmax])
% 
% which sets the limits in the X, Y, Z and color axes.  You can
% also set only the X, Y and Z axes:
% 
%   axis([xmin xmax ymin ymax zmin zmax])
% 
% or only the X and Y axes:
% 
%   axis([xmin xmax ymin ymax])
% 
% To retrieve the current axis limits, use the syntax
% 
%   x = axis
% 
% where x is a 4-vector for 2D plots, and a 6-vector for
% 3D plots.
% 
% There are a number of axis options supported by FreeMat.
% The first version sets the axis limits to be automatically
% selected by FreeMat for each dimension.  This state is the
% default one for new axes created by FreeMat.
% 
%   axis auto
% 
% The next option sets all of the axis limits to manual
% mode.  This state turns off automatic scaling of the axis
% based on the children of the current axis object.  
% 
%   axis manual
% 
% The next option sets the axis limits to fit tightly around
% the data.
% 
%   axis tight
% 
% The next option adjusts the axis limits and plotbox aspect
% ratio so that the axis fills the position rectangle.
% 
%   axis fill
% 
% The next option puts the axis in matrix mode.  This mode
% is equivalent to the standard mode, but with the vertical
% axis reversed.  Thus, the origin of the coordinate system
% is at the top left corner of the plot.  This mode makes
% plots of matrix elements look normal (i.e., an identity
% matrix goes from upper left to lower right).
% 
%   axis ij
% 
% The next option puts the axis in normal mode, with the origin
% at the lower left corner.
% 
%   axis xy
% 
% The next option sets the axis parameters (specifically the
% data aspect ratio) so that equal ticks on each axis represent
% equal length.  In this mode, spheres look spherical insteal of
% ellipsoidal.
% 
%   axis equal
% 
% The next option is the same as axis equal, but sets the
% plot box to fit tightly around the data (so no background shows
% through).  It is the best option to use when displaying images.
% 
%   axis image
% 
% The next option makes the axis box square.
% 
%   axis square
% 
% The next option restores many of the normal characteristics of
% the axis.  In particular, it undoes the effects of square
% image and equal modes.
% 
%   axis normal
% 
% The next mode freezes axis properties so that 3D objects can
% be rotated properly.
% 
%   axis vis3d
% 
% The next mode turns off all labels, tick marks and background.
% 
%   axis on
% 
% The next mode turns on all labels, tick marks and background.
% 
%   axis off
% 
% The next mode is similar to axis off, but also repacks the
% figure as tightly as possible.  The result is a plot box that
% takes up the entire outerposition vector.
% 
%   axis maximal
% 
% The axis command can also be applied to a particular axis
% (as opposed to the current axis as returned by gca) handle
% 
%   axis(M,...)
