Sorry about that, and thanks for your investigation.  It's easy enough 
to change the default. 

I think (and it was a while ago, so I may be misremembering) I probably 
made that change myself in error.  (There used to be two completely 
separate code paths for doing step plots, that I merged into one). 

Any objections?  Is it possible that change was made deliberately (to 
conform with matlab or gnuplot etc.)?

Cheers,
Mike
