plot2d with log y scale



Jaime,

I don't think this is right.  Let's change the notation to 
talk about

plot2d(%e^x, [x,0,10], [logy]),

to avoid confusion with two "y"s.  The way this plot appears 
now, if you read the y-value corresponding to x=2, you get 
log(%e^2) ~ 7.5, which is wrong.

The "[logy]" option should simply produce 
logarithmically-spaced ticks on the y-axis, that is all.  It 
should not add a log the label.
