I've updated the plotting chapter in the manual, and made a number of
changes to the doc strings for plot functions.  I know it is not
perfect or completely comprehensive, but I think it is better than it
was before.  Please take a look and send patches or *specific*
suggestions if you notice problems.
It seems that @xref is being used to reference figures, which result in text like:

"...shown in See Figure 15.3"

Attached patch changes some @xref's to @ref's, which changes to above text to

"...shown in Figure 15.3"
