I now think that the label parameter must be working, because the lines of latitude and longitude are labeled in the version of the map that is saved by the program, and that I'm not seeing them on the screen because I have black text on a black background. Is there a way to control the color of the text labels? Note also that the plot title appears on the screen shot jpeg, but not in the version saved by the program. Any advice will be appreciated.
