set annot

set annot color <thickness>

Sets color and line thickness.

Usage Note

Default is white, thickness 6. This command also sets the color and
thickness for the axis border, axis labels, and tickmarks. Axis tickmarks
and labels are plotted at the specified thcikness minus 1.

I believe set annot also affects draw title and that the thickness has some
effect on the axis label size, but I don't know of any way of directly
setting the size of these plot labels.
