st: A -graph twoway bar- equivalent of the -bargap- option?

[Hiroshi Maeda <hmaeda1@uic.edu>]

Hi Statalisters,

I've been experimenting with and comparing -graph bar- and -graph twoway 
bar- commands for some time. I've noticed that -graph bar- has a 
-bargap- option, whereby one can control a gap between bars defined by 
multiple y-variables. I find the ability of -bargap- to make adjacent 
bars overwrap each other (e.g. -bargap(-50)-) very attractive. Although 
I find the -graph twoway bar- more flexible, I haven't found its 
equivalent of -bargap- in the Graphics manual.

Here is my question:
Is there any way to implement the -bargap- option available in the 
-graph bar- command in the -graph twoway bar- command?

Thank you in advance. ---Hiroshi
