Well, you cannot simply copy and paste from the resulting .grec file, but
you do get an idea where to look for your required option. I usually tend to
employ the dialog box to get the syntax of -graph- commands right, and once
I am done, paste the command into my do-file for future reference...

Betreff: Re: AW: AW: st: line spacing in legend subtitle
Thanks Martin!
I keep all my code in do files, and I wonder is there a quick way of
seeing how changes made in the graph editor would be coded in the do
file? Most of the time it seems easy to work out, but sometimes I am
unsure where to put the option. I'm sure I can play around with this
though...
