### Examples

    clf()
    a1=newaxes();
    a1.axes_bounds=[0,0,1.0,0.5];
    t=0:0.1:20;
    plot(t,acosh(t),'r')
    a2=newaxes();
    a2.axes_bounds=[0,0.5,1.0,0.5];
    x=0:0.1:4;
    plot(x,sinh(x))

    sca(a1); //make first axes current
    plot(t,asinh(t),'g')
    legend(['acosh','asinh'])
    sca(a2); //make secoçnd axes current
    legend('sinh')
