How to set xtics in 2-D plot in Octave 3.0.0.0

[Mr. E]

I have been using the __gnuplot_set__ xtics  command
for a long time to set non-uniform ticks on the x
axis, particularly handy in marking x-intercepts.

The new version of Octave 3.0.0.0 does not support
this method.  Does anyone know how to do this?

here is a sample program that I have used for many
years to teach xtic setting:

xmin=0.0;
xmax=2*pi;
ymin=-1;
ymax=1;

deltax=(xmax-xmin)/200;

axis([xmin   xmax  ymin ymax]);
x=xmin:deltax:xmax; 
y=sin(x);
plot(x,y)
__gnuplot_set__ xtics ( "Pi/2" pi/2, "Pi" pi, "3*Pi/2"
1.5*pi, "2*Pi" 2*pi ) 
plot(x,y)

thanks!
