Purpose
Writes a description of the data (legend) on the plot.
Function

Example
GDESCR / XR(0.5) YR(0.5) frame
Places a description in the middle of the picture, with a surrounding frame.
Parameters X(x),Y(y)
Specify x- and y-position of the description.
If both are omitted, the position will be defined by the cursor
Parameters XREL(xr),YREL(yr)
Specify x- and y-position of the description,
relative to the x- and y-origin, in units of the x- and y-axis, respectively.
Parameter ANGLE(ang)
Angle of text direction with respect to x-axis
Parameter LOOP
Loop until a cursor stop is entered
Parameter SIZE(rsize)
Size of characters = rsize * UNIT * SCALING
Parameter POS(px,py)
Specifies the position within the text string,
given in units of the string length and height.
Parameter SPACING(sp)
Space between characters.
Parameter WIDTH(lw)
Linewidth of the letters relative to their height, for thick letters only.
Parameter LINEDIST(ld)
Distance between lines, in units of the character height.
Parameter ROTATE(rot)
Inclination of characters. Counterclockwise.
Parameter LENGTH(len)
Length of characters. len > 1 causes a stretching.
Parameter COLOUR(colour)
Specifies the text colour. Possible choices for colour are:
D or a blank string for default (foreground) colour,
Data same colour as corresponding data data,
Else colour compositions.
Parameter FRAME
Draw a frame around the description and erase background before writing the description.
