 The `set title` command produces a plot title that is centered at the top of
 the plot.  `set title` is a special case of `set label` (Note: label ).

 Syntax:
       set title {"<title-text>"} {<xoff>}{,<yoff>} {"<font>,{<size>}"}
       show title

 Specifying constants <xoff> or <yoff> as optional offsets for the title will
 move the title <xoff> or <yoff> character screen coordinates (not graph
 coordinates).  For example, "`set title ,-1`" will change only the y offset
 of the title, moving the title down by roughly the height of one character.

 <font> is used to specify the font with which the title is to be written;
 the units of the font <size> depend upon which terminal is used.

 `set title` with no parameters clears the title.

 See `syntax` (Note: Syntax ) for details about the processing of backslash
 sequences and the distinction between single- and double-quotes.
