vlines.m

JLAB is a set of Matlab functions I have written or co-written over the past fifteen years for the p

function[h]=vlines(x,sty)
%VLINES   Add vertical lines to a plot.
%
%   VLINES(X,STYLE) puts vertical lines at locations X having style
%   described by the string STYLE.  VLINES draws the lines to fit the
%   current axis.
%
%   The SYTLE strings follow the format specified in LINESTYLE.  Thus
%   STYLE='2b--' draws blue dotted lines of width 2.
%
%   VLINES(X) uses the default STYLE='g--', a green dashed line.
%
%   See also HLINES.
