axis font sizes

To see the properties of the root

	disp (fieldnames (get (0)))

For a figure

	disp (fieldnames (get (gcf)))

For an axes

	disp (fieldnames (get (gca)))

For some other object with handle "h"

	disp (fieldnames (get (h)))

I would be nice if someone were to take the time to document all of  
this (it is rather large task).

My understanding is that the "default" properties work by implication.  
If I understand the situation correctly, the default property names  
are constructed as strcat("default", get(h,type), propertyname). If  
I'm wrong in this, hopefully I'll be quickly corrected.
