hlines.m

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

function[h]=hlines(y,sty)
%HLINES   Add horizontal lines to a plot.
%
%   HLINES(Y,STYLE) puts horizontal lines at locations Y having style
%   described by the string STYLE.  HLINES 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.
%
%   HLINES(Y) uses the default STYLE='g--', a green dashed line.
%
%   See also VLINES.
