label - write labels on the image

 label[/qualifiers] "text"

This will write labels anywhere you want, with any size. Use the /xpix= and /ypix= qualifiers to determine the location, in original pixel coordinates. The text must be included in double quotes e.g. ``write this here". A symbol can also be written using the /symbol=n qualifier.

label/color=n

Redefine the color used for the label. The number of each color can be found by doing ``scale" and counting the colors from left to right.

label/size_of_symbol=x.x

Redefine the size of the symbol from the default value. Values more than 2.0 will tend to be too large!

label/symbol=n

Plot a symbol on the screen. The value n defines different symbols.

label/width_of_symbol=n

Change the width of the symbol.

label/xpix=x.x

Define the X pixel where the label is to be placed, in original pixels.

label/ypix=y.y

Define the Y pixel where the label is to be placed, in original pixels.

Examples:

 
label/x=128/y=128 "<-- 4U 1822-37"      ! Write this label
