-vplplot- is running under version control and therefore using Stata's old
graphics engine.  Don may edit the graph preferences for old-style graphs
by typing

   . oldgprefs

Within Stata 8, this launches a dialog box which provides access to
the complete set of old Stata 7 graph preferences.  The old graph
preferences may also be set from the command line; see -help gprefs-.
