Comment(by hamish):

 * #comments patch applied in trunk and devbr6
  * 'point' width patch applied with modification in trunk

 further discussion:
  - I remember now why I split off the vpoints and put them over the grid
 lines by default, for complicated symbols like extra/alpha_flag it didn't
 look good to have them underneath when used to represent sampling
 stations. currently you can control it with the 'masked y|n' command; I'm
 open to changing the default 'y|n' there to go under the grid lines if
 there is popular support for having it that way, but before abusing the
 masked control I think we should better get the masked support working. I
 don't fully understand what it's doing, but AFAICT by looking at
 do_masking.c and r_plt.c, the help page is misleading/wrong, it doesn't
 have much to do with raster MASK maps after all. AFAICT the maskcolor
 instruction currently does nothing.

  - FP color table border width: both new and old way is a bit weird. I'll
 check in a compromise which gets rid of the overly wide wierdness, as a
 base for further discussion. screenshots will be helpful here.

 scalebar, vlegend: I haven't looked at these yet.


 thanks,
 Hamish
