SUBROUTINE LGAXS

 LGAXS plots a single  logarithmic coordinate  axis. Complete decades are produced. See also  AXIS and LGLIN.  

CALL LGAXS (x,y,s,n,al,a,nmin,dx<,ic>)

x,y   (R): location starting point of the axis
s     (C): axis label string
n     (I): number of characters in string
           > 0 :  label on positive side
           < 0 :  label on negative side
 (100's digit)   = 0 : coordinate line, ticks and labels drawn
                 = 1 : line and ticks only--no labeling
 (1000's digit)  = 0 : numeric labels paralel to axis line
                 = 1 : numeric labels orthogonal to axis line
 (10000's digit) = 0 : color list ignored
                 = 1 : color list used
al    (R): length of axis
           > 0 : axis ticks placed on same side of axis as title
           = 0 : no action (return with no plotting)
           < 0 : ticks placed on opposite side of axis from title
a     (R): angle at which the axis should be plotted
nmin  (R): number to be printed at the first axis tick (power of ten)
dx    (R): scaling factor in the form dx=(nmax-nmin)/l where
           nmax, nmin are the exponent powers at the start
           and end of the axis
ic    (I): color array (accessed if mag(n)>10000))
           ic(1) : color for axis line and ticks
           ic(2) : color for numbers
           ic(3) : color for axis title
