## Plots two sets of data with independent y-axes. The arguments @var{x1} and
## @var{y1} define the arguments for the first plot and @var{x1} and @var{y2}
## for the second. 
##
## By default the arguments are evaluated with 
## @code{feval (@@plot, @var{x}, @var{y})}. However the type of plot can be
## modified with the @var{fun} argument, in which case the plots are
## generated by @code{feval (@var{fun}, @var{x}, @var{y})}. @var{fun} can be 
## a function handle, an inline function or a string of a function name.
##
## The function to use for each of the plots can be independently defined 
## with @var{fun1} and @var{fun2}.
##
## If given, @var{h} defines the principal axis in which to plot the @var{x1}
## and @var{y1} data. The return value @var{ax} is a two element vector with
## the axis handles of the two plots. @var{h1} and @var{h2} are handles to
## the objects generated by the plot commands.
##
## @example
## @group
## x = 0:0.1:2*pi; 
## y1 = sin (x);
## y2 = exp (x - 1);
## ax = plotyy (x, y1, x - 1, y2, @@plot, @@semilogy);
## xlabel ("X");
## ylabel (ax(1), "Axis 1");
## ylabel (ax(2), "Axis 2");
