Guppi (www.gnome.org/guppi) also does this if people want to see the
effect in a more accessible app.  Button 1 = zoom in, button 2 = pan,
button 3 = zoom out.

Guppi is clearly in an alpha stage right now, but it has some nice
ideas for plotting data, like automatically showing extents, mean and
sigma of 2d scatter plots.  All of this can be done by a little simple
custom ROOT coding of course.
