Hi ARINDAM CHAKRABORTY,

          Thank you very much for your kind help. I could increase font size of x-axis
labels and y axis labels by 'set xlopts color <thickness> <size>' command.
I will be grateful to you if you help me to solve some more difficulties:
(1) I wrote title and x labels, labels using draw x lab and draw y lab commands. I am
unable to increase/decrease their font or make them bold (thicker).
(2) I did contour plotting in which color bar is plotted at the side of the figure. I
want to increase the font of color bar label (value).

        with regards
         Suvarna Fadnavis
