Function Synopsis

this_ax = subplot2(ncol, num);

Help text

  this_ax = subplot2(nCol, thisPlot);

  nCol = number of columns to be produced
  thisPlot = the subplot number (standard order)

  This routine produces subplots sized and positioned
  according to the dimensions specified by global_axes.
  This is helpful for producing actual-sized figures 
  (e.g., for publications).
