Hello plplotters,

I'm using plplot in a program to create a plot where x-axis is time. The 
time scale is a couple of years and I found that plplot chooses place 
the xtics at 'Dec <YEAR>' e.g. 'Dec 2006' or 'Dec 2007'. Changing the 
time-fmt I figured out that the first ticks are set at "2006 Dec 31 
06:00", "2007 Dec 31 12:00", "2008 Dec 31 18:00", "2009 Dec 31 00:00" et 
cetera.

Firstly, the ticks are placed on Dec 31st while I would expect the to be 
on New Year Jan 1st 00:00:00. My guess is that the tick somehow is set 
to Jan 00 which in a sense corresponds to Dec 31.

Secondly, it seems like the distance between two ticks are 365.25 days 
rather than a year. This doesn't matter that much as long as the tick 
doesn't jump back to Dec 31 dues to a leap year.

Let me know if I can give some more information.

I'm using plplot version 5.9.6.


Thanks,
Peter
