Hello everyone,
I want to write the longitude (x-label) and latitude (y-label) in the margins of my image, but I do not understand why is not working.
Does anyone have an idea what I’m doing wrong?
Thank you so much.
GMT Bash tutorial, Session One, “My first plot”
not reading documentation is very wrong I believe!

OK I’ll explain, this is not obvious for a newbie and -B option docs and features are rich and complex (but must be studied anyway!). GMT isn’t an easy tool.
Standardized command line options, Axes settings:
+l|+L label (for Cartesian plots only) to add a label to an axis. +l uses the default label orientation; +L forces a horizontal label for y-axes, which is useful for very short labels.
GMT only adds x/y axis labels only for Cartesian plots, not for geographical lon/lat. GMT basically disregards your x/y labels for geographical plot coordinates.
