I would like to propose two new features for the axes annotation in the GMT. 1st: In astrophysics, we often work with great ranges of values (many orders of magnitude). ... However, GMT 3.2 allows to plot annotations for log10 axes every integer log10 value or even more frequently. The proposed patch allows to specify large steps for the log10 axes, in the form illustrated by an example below. 2nd: 10^0 instead of 1, and 10^1 instead of simply 10 do not look beautiful. ... The patch is here. ...
