 The `financebars` style is only relevant for 2-d data plotting of financial
 data.  Five columns of data are required; in order, these should be the x
 coordinate (most likely a date) and the opening, low, high, and closing
 prices.  The symbol is a vertical line segment, located horizontally at the x
 coordinate and limited vertically by the high and low prices.  A horizontal
 tic on the left marks the opening price and one on the right marks the
 closing price.  The length of these tics may be changed by `set bar`
 (Note: bar ).  The symbol will be unchanged if the high and low prices are
 interchanged.  See `set bar` and `candlesticks` (Note: candlesticks ).
