## Draws two plots on a single graph using seperate y-axes. The optional
## function handles @var{fl} and @var{fr} can be used to draw the left
## and right graphs corrspondingly. The must point to function which 
## are of the form @var{h}=f(@var{x},@var{y}) such as 
## @code{plot}, @code{semilogy}, @code{bar}, etc...
##
## plotyy returns the handles of the created axes in @var{ax} and the 
## handles of the created objects in the left and right axes in @var{hl}
## and @var{hr} respectively.
