Well - almost anyway ;-)  Actually, I think the problem is more likely
to be related to my 8-bit display than to VMS.  When I click on the
axis color box, I get a complaint about a missing SADDLE BROWN color
and the axes turn white (ie disappear).  When I select a new color,
the axis reappear with that color but all 3 color boxes in the "Plot
options" widget turn the axis color.  I can continue to manipulate the
colors independently, except that the 3 boxes always show the axis color.

If I say "mpi_plot,color='green'", then when I click on the modify button
the axes change from green to the data color (navy by default).  If I
then change the data color, the axes (and color boxes) revert back to
green.

Nevertheless, "nifty" seems an appropriate comment.
