gset label "hi" at 1992, pos

[Alan Robert Clark]

Hi All

I need to set some text at a particular position on a plot. I can do it
Gnuplot, but NOT via the octave interface to gnuplot (gset).

In octave, 

avg = sum(SeasonTotals)/length(SeasonTotals)
gset label "Avg" at 1992 , avg


causes gnuplot to (correctly) complain that avg is not defined (in the
gnuplot workspace)

eval etc also gets passed as is, and hence suffers the same way.

Any way of passing a variable to the gnuplot workspace?

Naturally, coding the above fragment in gnuplot proper works, but my
data is in octave!

Any help appreciated
Alan
