Re: [Gnuplot-info] Move labels of the x and y axis to the very right / top

[Rob S. <rob...@ut...>]

While I agree you should be able to place the units where ever you wish, 
I don't think just because ROOT writes them at the max end of the axes 
is a good reason to do it.  The rest of us are perfectly at home with 
the units in the middle.  The example publication would not be 
materially effected in the least.
