Thanks. The staxlab works with the plot generated by
plot(tt, data,....)
but not with
plot(tsdata, ...)
i.e., it seems to be the tsplot that somehow changes something and the
axis commands have no effect.
I probably should have pointed out that my main concern is that I'm not
getting any error msg. Just no axis label. And it seems I need to make
sure the labels vector is the same length as I need -- no recycling.
