## 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.  When label names
## might be confused with legend properties, or @var{command} arguments,
## the labels should be protected by specifying them as a cell array of
## strings.
##
## If the first argument @var{hax} is an axes handle, then add a legend to this
## axes, rather than the current axes returned by @code{gca}.
##
## If the first argument @var{hleg} is a legend handle, then operate on this
## legend rather than the legend of the current axes.
##
## Legend labels are associated with the axes' children; The first label is
## assigned to the first object that was plotted in the axes, the second label
## to the next object plotted, etc.  To label specific data objects, without
## labeling all objects, provide their graphic handles in the input
## @var{hobjs}.
##
## The following customizations are available using @var{command}:
##
## @table @asis
## @item @qcode{"show"}
##   Show legend on the plot
##
## @item @qcode{"hide"}
##   Hide legend on the plot
##
## @item @qcode{"toggle"}
##   Toggle between @qcode{"hide"} and @qcode{"show"}
##
## @item @qcode{"boxon"}
##   Show a box around legend (default)
##
## @item @qcode{"boxoff"}
##   Hide the box around legend
##
## @item @qcode{"right"}
##   Place label text to the right of the keys (default)
##
## @item @qcode{"left"}
##   Place label text to the left of the keys
##
## @item @qcode{"off"}
##   Delete the legend object
## @end table
##
## The @code{legend} function creates a graphics object which has various
## properties that can be manipulated with @code{get}/@code{set}.
## Alternatively, properties can be set directly when calling @code{legend} by
## including @var{property}/@var{value} pairs.  If using this calling form, the
## labels must be specified as a cell array of strings.  Graphics object
## properties are documented in detail at @ref{Graphics Object Properties}.
##
## Following is a subset of supported legend properties:
## @c The following table is obtained by copying the output of
## @c genpropdoc ("legend", "", {"autoupdate", "box", "location", "numcolumns", "orientation", "string", "textcolor"})
##
## @table @asis
##
## @item @code{autoupdate}: @qcode{"off"} | @{@qcode{"on"}@}
## Control whether the number of legend items is updated automatically when
## objects are added to (or deleted from) the peer axes.  For example:
##
## @example
## @group
## ## Create a single plot with its legend.
## figure ();
## plot (1:10);
## legend ("Slope 1");
## ## Add another plot and specify its displayname so that
## ## the legend is correctly updated.
## hold on;
## plot ((1:10) * 2, "displayname", "Slope 2");
## ## Stop automatic updates for further plots.
## legend ("autoupdate", "off");
## plot ((1:10) * 3);
## @end group
## @end example
##
## @item @code{box}: @qcode{"off"} | @{@qcode{"on"}@}
## Control whether the legend has a surrounding box.
##
## @item @code{location}: @qcode{"best"} | @qcode{"bestoutside"} |
## @qcode{"east"} | @qcode{"eastoutside"} | @qcode{"none"} | @qcode{"north"} |
## @{@qcode{"northeast"}@} | @qcode{"northeastoutside"} |
## @qcode{"northoutside"} | @qcode{"northwest"}| @qcode{"northwestoutside"} |
## @qcode{"south"} | @qcode{"southeast"} | @qcode{"southeastoutside"} |
## @qcode{"southoutside"} | @qcode{"southwest"} | @qcode{"southwestoutside"} |
## @qcode{"west"} | @qcode{"westoutside"}
## Control the location of the legend.
##
## @item @code{numcolumns}: scalar interger, def. @code{1}
## Control the number of columns used in the layout of the legend items.
## For example:
##
## @example
## @group
## figure ();
## plot (rand (30));
## legend ("numcolumns", 3);
## @end group
## @end example
##
## Setting @code{numcolumns} also forces the @code{numcolumnsmode} property
## to be set to @qcode{"manual"}.
##
## @item @code{orientation}: @qcode{"horizontal"} | @{@qcode{"vertical"}@}
## Control whether the legend items are arranged vertically (column-wise) or
## horizontally (row-wise).
##
## @item @code{string}: string | cell array of strings
## List of labels for the legend items.  For example:
##
## @example
## @group
## figure ();
## plot (rand (20));
## ## Let legend choose names automatically
## hl = legend ();
## ## Selectively change some names
## str = get (hl, "string");
## str(1:5:end) = "Garbage";
## set (hl, "string", str);
## @end group
## @end example
##
## @item @code{textcolor}: colorspec, def. @code{[0   0   0]}
## Control the color of the text strings for legend item.
##
## @end table
##
## The full list of supported legend specific properties can be found at
## @ref{Legend Properties, , Legend Properties}.
##
## A legend is implemented as an additional axes object with the @code{tag}
## property set to @qcode{"legend"}.  Properties of the legend object may be
## manipulated directly by using @code{set}.
##
## The optional output value @var{hleg} is a handle to the legend object.
##
## Implementation Note: The legend label text is either provided in the call to
## @code{legend} or is taken from the @code{DisplayName} property of the
## graphics objects.  Only data objects, such as line, patch, and surface, have
## this property whereas axes, figures, etc.@: do not so they are never present
## in a legend.  If no labels or @code{DisplayName} properties are available,
## then the label text is simply @qcode{"data1"}, @qcode{"data2"}, @dots{},
## @nospell{@qcode{"dataN"}}.
##
## The legend @code{FontSize} property is initially set to 90% of the axes
## @code{FontSize} to which it is attached.  Use @code{set} to override this
## if necessary.
