% Display a legend for the current axes using the specified strings
% as labels. Legend entries may be specified as individual character
% string arguments, a character array, or a cell array of character
% strings. Legend works on line graphs, bar graphs, etc. A plot must
% exist before legend is called.
%
% The optional parameter @var{pos} specifies the location of the legend
% as follows:
%
% @multitable @columnfractions 0.06 0.14 0.80
% @item @tab north @tab
% center top
% @item @tab south @tab
% center bottom
% @item @tab east @tab
% right center
% @item @tab west @tab
% left center
% @item @tab northeast @tab
% right top (default)
% @item @tab northwest @tab
% left top
% @item @tab southeast @tab
% right bottom
% @item @tab southwest @tab
% left bottom
% @item
% @item @tab outside @tab
% can be appended to any location string
% @end multitable
%
