Details

addtable2plot displays the values in table at a position in user coordinates specified by x,y. The two justification arguments, xjust and yjust are the same as in the legend function, and addtable2plot has been programmed to be as similar to legend as possible. The defaults are those that were most popular in scientific journals at the time of programming.
