##
## Called without arguments @code{xlim} returns the x-axis limits of the
## current plot.  With the input query "mode", return the current x-limit
## calculation mode which is either "auto" or "manual".
##
## If passed a 2-element vector [@var{x_lo} @var{x_hi}], the limits of the
## x-axis are set to these values.
##
## The current plotting mode can be set by passing either "auto" or "manual" as
## the argument.
##
## If the first argument @var{hax} is an axes handle, then operate on
## this axis rather than the current axes returned by @code{gca}.
