Examples

library("ggplot2")
df = data.frame(x = seq(0.01,10,.01),
               y = seq(0.01,10,.01)^2)
p       = ggplot(df, aes(x=x, y=y)) + geom_line()
# pretty up the axes
p       = prepare_figure(fo=p, purpose="print")
# pretty log10 y-axis 
p_logy  = gg_log10_yaxis(fo=p)
# pretty log10 x-axis 
p_logx  = gg_log10_xaxis(fo=p)
# pretty log10 yx-axis 
p_logxy = gg_axis(fo=p)
