There is another problem. I once asked here about colouring
a plot, and got a recipe, which works fine. However, it seems
to erase tic marks. For example, I have

set xtics 1990, 5, 2010
set ytics 0, 100, 300
set obj rect from graph 0, graph 0 to graph 1, graph 1 back \
    fc rgb '#FFEFD5' fillstyle solid 0.5

and the numbers come out on both axes, but no tic marks. Is
this an effect of the set obj line?
