    string

To show help, simply run "draws".

-by type

Coordinate type. "figure" (relative to figure), "world", "grid", or "xy". Defalut value is "figure".

-pos position

Position to draw string. Only for "-by figure". Default value is "tc".

-base base

Base position of the string. Only for "-by figure".

xpos, ypos

Position.

(-xoffset | -xo) xoffset

Horizontal offset. Default value is "0".

(-yoffset | -yo) yoffset

Vertical offset. Default value is "0".

-color color

Font color. Default value is "1".

-setfont size

Size for setfont.gs.

-angle angle

Rotation angle of string in degree. Default value is "0".

string

String to draw. Specify it as the last option.

Possible value of position and base

(1) Draw string "U[m/s]" at the top left of the figure.

ga-> draws -pos tl U[m/s]

(2) Draw string "Temperature" at the top of the figure with specified font size.

ga-> set strsiz 0.15 0.15
ga-> draws -pos tc Temperature

(3) Draw x- and y-axis labels

ga-> d t
Contouring: 240 to 310 interval 10
ga-> draws -pos bc -yo -0.2 -setfont normal longitude
ga-> draws -pos l -xo -0.3 -setfont normal -angle 90 latitude
ga-> printim draws_sample3.eps
