Drawing "standard" 2D axes in MATLAB

Is there a trivial way to draw the y = 0 and x = 0 lines in
MATLAB? It should be easy to do ...

You could use line(). Unfortunately you won't know the appropriate
bounds until after you have plotted your other data. Once you
have done the other plot, you can examine the axis's XLim and YLim
to determine the bounds to write to.

take a look at my GRIDXY:
http://www.mathworks.com/matlabcentral/fileexchange/loadFile
.do?objectId=9973&objectType=FILE

(beware of line wraps) ;

An example:
plot(randn(1000,1),randn(1000,1),'b.') ;
gridxy(0,0,'color','k','linestyle','-','linewidth',2)
