This refers to two user written commands. Per the Statalist FAQ you
need to tell us where you got this from. The reason is that there are
usually multiple version floating around in cyberspace, and if we are
talking about different versions we could easily fail to understand
one another. I will assume you got these from SSC. In that case, you
can try something like this:

eclplot  OR min95 max95 month,               ///
     eplottype(connected) rplottype(rarea)   ///
     ciopts(astyle(ci))                      ///
     xlabel(1 "J" 2 "F" 3 "M" 4 "A" 5 "MY" 6 ///
"JN" 7 "JL" 8 "AG" 9 "S" 10 "O" 11 "N" 12 "D")

Hope this helps,
